WholeLife Counseling was formed out of my passion to counsel people who desire to rid themselves of anxiety and depression, who want to learn healthy patterns of relating including the healthy expression of disappointment and anger, and who ultimately desire to feel whole. I specialize in working with and supporting partners of sexual addicts whose lives and families have been broken by a mates addiction to pornography and risky sexual behavior.
I also specialize in verbal abuse counseling for people who have been or are currently involved in a relationship with a highly self-absorbed person. Both of these types of damaging relationships are full of emotional and verbal abuse which often goes undetected and leads a person to feel crazy.

This interactive psycho-educational counseling program was developed to help people, mainly women but sometimes men, in need of verbal & emotional abuse counseling learn to make sense of what is happening to them. Learn how to no longer be an unknowing participant in the cycle. Many clients want to be less reactive.
The verbally abusive communication tactics used by controlling people create great mental anguish and pain for their partners; however, these ongoing "incidents" can go unrecognized for years as patterns of abuse, because they often leave no physical marks. It takes the average married woman 18 years to conclude that she is in a verbally abusive relationship.
The path out of depression is never easy; yet, depression is treatable as is anxiety, the "what if" disorder. At WholeLife Counseling, depression, anxiety and panic disorder as well as avoidance behaviors are treated using a multi-faceted approach that combines the latest advances in Emotional Regulation Therapy.
Often, we must search out and take control of the patterns and beliefs which served us well in coping during childhood and adolescence, but that no longer make positive contributions to our current relationships. Healthy emotional regulation is the ability to stay in the here and now and create win/win solutions which are respectul and considerate of all parties involved.
What do people suffering from anger, addiction, anxiety or depression all have in common? They all lack the ability to healthfully regulate their own emotions. In most cases, it is an under-statement to say that people who lack this ability tend to be hurtful in relationships. Sadly, people who lack healthy emotional regulation so often fail to see anyone's perspective but their own.
