Individual Counseling

Individual Counseling with Karen McIntrye your Ventura Therapist

Be the best that you can be with individual counseling! Do you have limiting beliefs about yourself that hold you back from taking steps toward your dreams? Have you developed unhealthy coping skills that you can’t seem to break? Sometimes, past experiences teach people things about themselves, others, and their future that are hard to shake. Emotional trauma experienced as a child can affect you long after you are an adult.

Individual Counseling combined with EMDR can get to the roots of the issues holding you back!

Life is a marathon sometimes: learning how to have healthy life balance skills is needed to get to the end!

Maintaining healthy boundaries is vital to prioritize your health, partner or spouse, children, and work! Out-of-balance priorities cause unhealthy emotional and physical stress for you and your family.

Building your connection with God and discovering how loved and supported you are is key to a healthy identity. Developing your spiritual self will strengthen your confidence in living your best life now!

We all need to learn healthy communication skills if we want to see our dreams fulfilled. Sometimes, we need to unlearn what we were taught when we were young.

Anyone can learn higher-level relating skills.

Developing the inner strength and resilience needed to face life’s challenges will serve you well. Setting realistic, attainable, specific goals and then accomplishing them starts building confidence. If you can accomplish small goals, you can learn that you can accomplish even more!

Celebrating accomplishments and adjusting beliefs about yourself will help you build trust in yourself and your ability to achieve your goals.

Everyone has setbacks along the way! Working on what got in the way, why it derailed you, and how to handle it next time will get you back on track again! It’s all fuel for the learning!

Resistance, testing, and failures always serve to show us where we are in our healing process. Success is not measured by how many times you fall but by how many times you get up and keep following your dreams!

Having someone in your corner who has gone through the process and knows how to guide you can be invaluable and life-changing!
