McKOWN COUNSELING

Individual Counseling for Older Teens and Adults

Hello, and welcome to McKown Counseling. I am glad you are here!

Do you feel lost, like you aren't sure who you are or where you are going? Do you sometimes miss being a kid? Or perhaps you have a sense that everyone is, somehow, doing better than you. I can help. Whether you would like to improve your relationships with partners, friends or family, explore feelings of grief in your own way without pressure to "get back to normal already," or find that sense of self and purpose that you might be missing, I provide a safe and confidential environment to process thoughts and feelings and gain insight, feedback and understanding.

I would like to acknowledge that seeking help may be difficult. Just by visiting this site, you are taking a step toward growth and healing. You are, in effect, affirming that you are important and that you want change. You are not alone. Many people turn to professional counseling for a multitude of reasons including: facing unfamiliar challenges, coping with loss, or struggling to make meaning of life experiences. The counseling relationship and process are a gateway to genuine and authentic contact with all that we are and a means to propelling oneself towards wholeness and ultimately a more satisfying life.

I invite you to explore the information and services that I offer using the links above. 
Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to consider counseling with me.
