About Nonlinear Counseling, LLC
Solution-focused
The philosophical and practical goal at Nonlinear Counseling, LLC is to cultivate the change that you identify. Frequency of sessions and duration of treatment vary by individual case, but you can expect to transition out of therapy when you meet your defined goals. It may feel circuitous at times, but there is a destination.
Flexible
It is often the act of reexamining ourselves through periodic setbacks that offers the greatest growth value. Nonlinear Counseling, LLC rolls with the unexpected and setbacks and utilizes them to inform continued progress towards defined goals.
Trauma-Informed
Nonlinear Counseling, LLC approaches each case from a baseline belief that the individual may have confronted some life-altering experience that negatively impacts current functioning. This may not be true for everyone but offering a space which openly acknowledges the disruptive power of personal trauma can reduce fear and apprehension often associated with initial treatment engagement.
Individualized
Meaningful therapy takes into consideration the many factors that make each person unique. Historical experience, interpersonal relationships, beliefs, values, personality traits, daily stressors, language, and aspirations all figure into the dialogue to create a therapeutic alliance that fits.
Creative
Therapy that embraces creativity is fun. Creativity - and curiosity- are essential for developing new perspectives and strategies to change those things that keep getting in the way of becoming your full you.
