God intends for us to be happy and content while the struggles of this world constantly attack the very foundation of our mental health. Things like intrusive thoughts of fear, jealously, inferiority, anger, mistrust, unforgiveness, and guilt rob us of our confidence and sense of wellbeing. Obsessive behavior or feelings of anxiety or depression can prevent or erode relationships that add so much to our lives. Healthy work relationships, marriage, and family relationships are all negatively or positively impacted by our perception. Our behavior will not change until our thinking changes. Why continue in pain when there is a relief.

In today's society, people feel pressure to choose a side or struggle with what to say. It's hard to determine where you fit in or who to trust. This is not a way to go through life. I help clients decipher what is important and refocus on those things that matter most. While we can't change the world overnight, we can help influence and change our environment and be a positive light to those we encounter. Life is a journey with ups and downs but it's up to us to embrace each day and use it to accomplish something new and choose to see the joy in each moment.

I’m passionate about creating a resting place for spiritual souls that have experienced church hurt, spiritual trauma and those that are struggling with sexual addictions, helping them see how beautiful they are in the midst of uncertainty and change. When it feels like your life seems to be unraveling and entering unchartered territory, where once the sources of connection and safety no longer feel like a place of belonging, that can feel extremely scary. Without a safe place to process and heal from these wounds, this sense of unsettling won’t just magically disappear even if you leave that triggering environment.

Anxiety, depression, grief... we all experience these emotions at some point. But what if they become overwhelming? What if anxiety turns into paralyzing fear, panic attacks, racing thoughts, inability to sleep, do your job, or have a social life? Depression can lead to low motivation, lack of purpose, excessive sleep, or even suicidal thoughts. Grief can rob you of joy, pleasure, and zest for life. These issues and others (stress, job loss, divorce/relationship issues, health issues, etc.) may make life seem unbearable or unmanageable. But it doesn’t have to be. I believe there is hope and a path to healing for you.

God has a plan- a hope filled plan- for each of us. Sometimes we forget this or find it difficult to believe. Sometimes we may even feel we don't deserve it. I became a counselor to walk alongside people- believers and non-believers alike- as they confront any issues or situations that may be preventing them from living out the plan God has for them.

I opened Ofaros because of a passion for helping people to see just how capable they really are. Life is full of hard roads and some of them can break, scar, or cripple us. Our experiences and situations can have enduring impacts on our peace and well-being. And for some, life may bring seasons of sadness, anger, or confusion with no clear cause and often without an easy way forward. My hope is that I can help you find your "brighter way forward" no matter what you've gone through or are currently experiencing. I've had to endure my own hard roads, and I want to walk beside you in yours. - Seth Powell, Owner & Counselor

Sojourn means "to stay for a time in a place or to live temporarily". This is my view of our life on earth. It is a temporary stay, and our time here can be difficult, confusing and painful at times. Sometimes, we need help navigating. I believe that we each have a unique story and set of experiences that make us who we are. What we believe about ourselves and the world around us impacts how we feel and respond to life. I'd like to help you navigate life so that you may have the most abundant life possible.
