How to get started

The first step is trusting someone with your story and allowing that person to come alongside you on your journey.

Counseling for Couples and Individuals

Do you ever find yourself asking, how did I get here? How did my life take the direction it has?

Perhaps you experienced some kind of trauma in your past – childhood abuse, a relationship trauma, or those received on the battlefield – and you are wondering why what happened then continues to affect and impact your life now. I am here to tell you that healing is possible. There is hope!

Maybe you’ve been thinking about talking to someone for a while now…. All too often, the crisis point comes when we least expect it.

The internal turmoil we work so hard to keep hidden inside refuses to do so any longer. Like a rubber ball we press down under the water, it eventually slips out of our hands and pops to the surface. Sometimes, we just need someone to help us process it all through.

Or you could be struggling in your marriage.

The two of you seem unable to communicate effectively anymore. You have grown apart over the years and lost touch. Parenting has become a constant battle. Your spouse has had an affair or struggles with addiction. You have lost trust and desperately want to know how to get that back. The truth is that we all struggle at times; the difference now is that you are finally ready to let someone help you. It no longer makes sense to keep doing what doesn’t work and

expect a different result. Solid marriage counseling can make all the difference. It would be my honor to help you with some real solutions. I have been married over 40 years myself and have three grown children, and while marriage is not always easy, creating a marriage where you are “better together” is always worth the journey.

While you may have been feeling that you simply have nowhere to turn when it comes to trying to process your emotions or find a way out, I am here to assure you that you do not have to walk through it alone.

I have spent well over 25 years working with survivors of trauma, abuse, PTSD, and a variety of other challenges that so many of us face along the way.

As a Neuropsychologist, I am fascinated by brain/behavior relationships and have spent many years studying and training others in this area. My favorite part about doing this work, though, is bringing people hope, no matter what the issue or how deep the pain they are facing. I am committed to providing you with the tools you need to live life as you want it, to no longer live in bondage to past hurts or present fears, and to use these experiences as building blocks for a bright future.

You do not have to travel alone on your journey!

Why Lifepaths?

A lifepath is a pathway through life as determined by the choices and decisions a person makes.

By the time you have reached this stage in your life’s journey you most certainly have traversed many paths: some good, some problematic and painful. This is something we all have in common. My hope is that in coming to the place you are now you will give yourself permission to invite someone to come alongside you and support you on your journey and that you will find the healing path.

Faith-based Counseling Available

If you are a person of faith, I want to remind you that God cares deeply about your mental health every bit as much as He does your physical and spiritual wellbeing. He tells us that in the multitude of counselors there is wisdom, and clearly encourages us to seek counsel when we are struggling. “Show me the right path, O Lord, and point out the road for me to follow” the psalmist prayed in Psalm 25:4. Part of my ministry over the years has been to come alongside pastors and those in ministry positions as well as those in the Church seeking Christian counseling. I would consider it an honor to be invited onto the journey with you.

I want to assure you that there are answers to the challenges you face. There is hope. While the rapidly changing world about us can leave us feeling anxious, stressed, alienated, and unsure, we can find stability in the midst of it all. Our faithful God has promised us hope as an anchor for our souls that is both steadfast and secure (Heb. 6:19).

My goal is to provide a safe place for you to share your concerns, and my prayer is that you will find hope for your circumstances, light in the midst of the darkness, and that you will experience healing in those places of your deepest hurts.

I would consider it a privilege to assist you on your healing journey, whatever life path you have journeyed upon.

In the meantime, I hope the information found on these pages will answer some of the questions you may have and provide some helpful resources.

Because of Him,
Pam

Your
Journey

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”

Deciding to find healing begins with a decision, is sustained with a commitment, and ends with a resolution to hold on to what you have gained in the process. While embarking on the healing journey certainly requires an inner fortitude and courage on our part, the reward we reap is great.

“The longest and toughest journeys are often the most rewarding.”

Where do I start? Begin by deciding to take the journey. First, consider: Where are you now and where do you want to be? Then, decide to take action. Research and find where the resources you need to reach your goals can be found and let nothing deter you from taking that first step. Start small if necessary, but at least get moving forward and refuse to remain stuck in the cycle you’ve been trapped in for too long.

“If you can’t fly, then run, If you can’t run, then walk, If you can’t walk, then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” Martin Luther King, Jr.

Commit to the process. Devote your time and resources to it so that you can reach your healing destination. It’s worth it!

“Unless a commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes, but no plans.”
