Of all the relationships we have in our lives, I believe that the one you have with yourself is the most important and impactful.

Through the therapeutic process, a person is able to find and access their own innate ability to heal and grow within a supportive, compassionate, and empowering environment. My passion for this work comes from seeing my clients evolve to feel happier and healthier in their daily lives. What ...

The challenges and obstacles of life we all face often stem from childhood. In our early years we learn about healthy relationships, self respect, balancing our emotions, and dealing with stressful situations. Sometimes, however, what we have learned can be a bit unclear or inappropriate and we grow up feeling detached from our emotions or unsure of how to cope with our very strong feelings. We are stuck, uncertain of what we really want in life. At Evolution Counseling Associates, we...

Immediate telehealth evening appts. You're tired. You have to carry BIG emotions all the damn time with no outlet to let them out. You may cry when you’re alone, but put on a smile so the world can’t see you're hurting on the inside. There is no time to slow down because slowing down makes the inner critic grow louder about how awful you are. Perhaps you get some release through eating or other coping methods, but ultimately, that voice comes right back again. The inner critic makes it hard f...
