Individual and Family Counseling is provided by Kathleen Oravec, an experienced Marriage & Family Therapist. She helps couples, families and individuals with their relationship and psychological issues. If you're feeling overwhelmed by changes in your professional life, relationships, or your own sense of self, I am here to help you shift your perspective and approach so that you can feel confident, empowered, and take action.
Together, we'll discover what is holding you back, get clear on what you truly want, and map out a strategic plan to get you the results you desire. Are you and your partner having trouble communicating without dissolving into conflict that seems to never get resolved? Are you tired of feeling anxious and walking on eggshells?

If you are dealing with other issues and are not sure if I work with them feel free to give me a call. Chances are I can help or, if not, provide a referral to someone who can. Look forward to speaking with you today (916) 912-4777. Collaboratively e-enable resource maximizing services rather than interdependent partnerships.
Kathleen has worked with me on issues great and small, offering advice when appropriate and allowing me to find my own way with her support, when that is most helpful for my personal growth. I'm very grateful to Kathleen also for allowing me to bring my very well-behaved four-legged companion to our meetings.
Over time, you and your spouse may have drifted apart. You became distracted by the business of raising your family and have neglected to nurture the relationship with your partner. As time went on, the distance between you and your partner became greater. Intimacy suffered as the connection you once had is eroded.
We can discuss ways in which you might convince your partner to come with you to counseling. But if he or she refuses and you come alone and are committed to making positive changes in yourself, those changes will impact the entire relationship and family - like a ripple effect. A: Absolutely - If both people want the same thing.
Premarital counseling helps partners improve their ability to communicate, set realistic expectations for marriage and develop conflict-resolution skills. In addition, premarital counseling can help couples establish a positive attitude about seeking help with their marriages down the road. You bring your own values, opinions and personal history into a relationship, and they might not always match your partner's.

I went to Kathleen years ago, with my husband at the time. I was in a tumultuous relationship so I’d been to other therapists before. Kathleen is sharp, insightful, and friendly. She isn’t pushy, but kindly guides you to better understand your relationship. In my case, I came to understand I was in a codependent relationship with someone who could never meet my needs. We were vastly incompatible. I ended up moving out and filing for divorce, and our last session with Kathleen helped with closure.

My husband and I have only seen Kathleen twice so far, but she has already had a huge impact. We're dealing with a situation that is out of our control, and has seemed insurmountable. Kathleen has listened to us, gave us a lot of insight and sent us on our way with some solid actions to start making things better. For the first time in a while, I feel hope.

Was at a point in my life where everything was going wrong - really needed someone to talk to so I didn't talk every friends ear off about my problems. I did a Google search, found Kathleen, and decided why not? I am so thankful I made a simple phone call. She is amazing and really helps me with every issue that comes up in my life.
