Feeling better about yourself leads to feeling better about life. Much of our stress comes from our negative thinking about ourselves which makes us feel negative about others and about life. You can change your life by changing your thinking. Having trust in your therapist is also what it's all about. I provide non-judgment, great listening skills, and a wisdom that comes not only from 36 years of experience, but also from delving within my own self. This leads to having a deep understanding of my patients who feel that from me right away. www.connienumbers.com

Imagine relaxing the grip of the painful past and the scary future. Imagine letting go of limiting stories and habits, and learning to welcome experiences and thoughts with curiosity and appreciation, instead of rigidity and dread.

Growth, change and healing are difficult. To heal, we must know ourselves and how we make meaning of events and situations. Ancestral psychotherapy may provide a gateway to find one's fit in the world. Through courage and bravery we may begin to understand our own life story. The journey through life has many mountains and valleys but I will walk with you as you try to make sense of your place in the world. Compassion and conversation will reveal some goals to work towards to help you or your family feel whole. I work with both individuals and families to grow, change and heal.

My style is to build a relationship that generates a warmth and trust that generates open and honest discussion about what brings you to the office. Counseling can be intimidating and feel forced at times. This atmosphere is counterproductive to healthy progress. I will bring to you a vast experience of helping others, as well as a touch of my own recovery story. This is your time, and I will do everything I can to shed positive light into the troublesome areas of your life.

The common thread that all of my work has shown me is that we are all precious and fragile. We are all wonderful and successful, yet hurting at the same time. Life is so complex, and yet we all find an amazing way to keep on moving ahead. Every day I get the honor of going through life aside my clients, seeing their most fragile and vulnerable sides, while also celebrating their most empowered moments. I am so honored and grateful for the ability to create a safe space for you to express yourself and to heal. I offer EMDR intensive options for those who want to get more momentum in their treatment.

Some days are better than others, but why can't everyday be good? That doesn't mean every day is going go your way, but it can mean that you are less impacted by situations or circumstances that leave you feeling down, stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. In return, you are able to cope with life situations in a way that teaches you how to live the life you want and feel good about the choices you make throughout your day. We all have challenges we face and at times, it seems easier to just give up. However, this does not have to be your destiny. You can take control of your life no matter what the situation is and find happiness.
