“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”
   ― Rumi

Santa Fe Life Counseling Services provides a safe, respectful environment to explore unresolved conflicts, grief, life transitions and challenges.  In our work together, we will focus on an experience(s) that is troubling you, and on how we will develop new skills with which to engage these issues.

The range of issues includes but are not limited to:

  • depression
  • anxiety
  • mid-life or spiritual crises
  • feeling of meaningless
  • spiritual emptiness
  • relationship difficulties
  • recovery from loss or trauma
  • communication skills
  • work stresses and small business challenges

Our therapeutic goals are to experience positive results and outcomes in terms of raising awareness, developing better coping strategies, resolving core difficulties, experiencing greater effectiveness in the world, and improved relationships.

Towards these ends, my working style brings together a combination of different modalities and perspectives and education in service to clients` transformation and wholeness.

 

CLIENT OPTIONS:

Individuals & Couples

Whether alone or with a partner, counseling can help resolve issues surrounding personal or work relationships, marriage and divorce, and other life situations.

Often, communication styles or blocks lead to breakdowns in our ability to share and connect. In turn, this can result in hostility, animosity, or worse, silence. Through our work together, you’ll be able to reconnect, or find the strength to move on. Our ultimate goal is to develop a deeper understanding of yourself and enable your ability to move forward. It is like learning to fish versus being given a fish. Let’s learn to fish together.

 

Group Therapy

Group Therapy can be a powerful mechanism for change by developing, exploring and examining issues, concerns and interpersonal relationships within a group setting. Groups can be developed upon request.  My experience includes design and facilitation of over 100 youth groups, school community groups and art and culture groups from around the U.S. and the world. Let’s explore together.
