Heart of Wonder Counseling and Wellness, LLC

When considering counseling, you want someone with knowledge and training in the field. 

Girls often struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and relationship/social challenges. To the outside world, these girls may appear having everything going right. They get good grades, work hard, and are genuinely good kids. 

However, inside they can feel disconnected, disengaged, and dissatisfied. They may have trouble expressing themselves or being assertive for fear of disappointing others. They may talk about not liking, or even hating themselves, as they try to keep up appearances of perfection.

Implementing counseling techniques and modalities fit for these unique needs is essential. You want a therapist who understands the distinctive qualities of becoming the woman God made you to be in an ever changing world.

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy. These modalities have been proven to be effective therapies.

By utilizing mindfulness and grounding techniques, as well as person centered approaches, a strong therapeutic alliance is formed. 

It is very common for adolescents to struggle with their feelings. They may exhibit moodiness, irritability, anxiety, sadness, anger, isolation, loneliness or stress.

Is your daughter engaging in risky behaviors or having ups-and-downs in daily moods? Do their moods change suddenly without warning? 

For girls, it can be scary and stressful to not fully understand their own changing moods and feelings. Sometimes, their moods can change when their parents are fighting, in the process of separation or divorce, or during the post-divorce time when they begin time-sharing with each parent in different houses. 

For young women, feeling stuck and unsure of what is next or how to build the life you want is a common experience. Long held beliefs and habitual patterns can keep us from moving forward towards a wonder-filled life.  

Girls often need support outside of their friends and family. Therapy and counseling allows them to safely share feelings about their moods in a non-judgmental setting.
