Are you anxious, always irritated or feel guilty for no reason? Do mood swings cause problems in your life? Do you keep making the same mistakes over and over? Sadly, many people manage the symptoms with prescriptions, street drugs, or alcohol, often resulting in making things worse. These treatments are meant to be temporary, and never really solve the problem. As the drugs become less effective their lives spiral out of control. These people feel increasingly anxious, hopeless and finally start pushing away friends and loved ones. Isolation becomes the norm, and loneliness takes over. But it doesnt have to be this way!

Gloria C. Mathiesen, MA, LMT, LPC, C-DBT, ERYT-500, Certified Aromatherapist, Usui Reiki Master/Teacher. I am only available virtually through the platform ZOOM. Big or small, trauma is trauma, it is something that I enjoy helping people navigate through and come out of. Your story is important, and it is an honor when you share it with me. I am a big fan of Internal Family Systems Theory and integrate it with all other aspects of our work together. I believe we all share an internal world of "protective parts" and through them we can begin the healing process.

I offer a safe and comforting environment to assist you in developing strength and resilience through building internal resources of safety, power, and control. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in a variety of presenting concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, relationship difficulties, and adjustment to major life events. I believe in an individual's desire and capacity to change and improve. I believe the path to healing is unique to each person and my aim is to provide a safe and nurturing place for you while you embrace your journey.

I understand how changes and challenges in life, especially now, can “throw a curve ball” into plans. This can create stress and a feeling of being overwhelmed or out of control. We all, at times, require a little help, encouragement, guidance from someone who can listen and receive without judgement. This is my calling, my “job”, to help you find the best version of yourself and develop skills to deal with life’s stressors. I feel my approach is a little different than others, kind of like two people sitting at a table, brainstorming both root causes and resolutions for your situation.

Welcome and thank you for being here. I know that this step is not always easy, but it is so brave to seek therapy and you should be proud of yourself. We all know that life can be tough and throw all types of curveballs at us that can lead to feeling lonely, guilt/shame, depressed, anxious, angry, really all the feelings. I am here for ALL the feelings. I’m an empathetic and compassionate therapist who has been working with individuals for the past 7 years.

As we journey through life, many factors blend to form who we are today. When we experience hurts, abuses, traumatic events, or unhealthy relationships we learn to find survival mechanisms that served their purpose at the time but are no longer effective in the present. I use a client-centered approach tailored to meet your individual needs to find the best path to healing. I chose counseling as a career because I have had a life-long passion for helping people.
