Ase! My name is Jocelyn Ford and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate for CCWA. Allow me the opportunity to help you gain new perspectives and learn about your internal power. I have a passion to help people gain control of their lives in order to begin to pave the way to true joy and peace.

I also love to incorporate somatic work to enhance your self-awareness and to help develop healthy self-care habits.

Have you ever woken up in the morning and asked yourself: Is this all that life is? Work. Bed. Repeat. Do you struggle to put your needs first and find companionship with your SELF? Do you ever wonder if life should somehow feel... less mundane and BETTER somehow? Terence McKenna, a world-renowned psychonaut, once said "Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up." Commit. Build that staircase to your higher self & deep dive into the cosmic mirror with me. Let's go!

If you’re reading this then you have decided that it’s time to get reconnected with yourself, your partner, or even your friends. Dating may be a struggle, you may be having trouble finding direction with your partner, or you may even be holding yourself back from opportunities that you feel you're not good enough for. There's one thing that is often the common denominator: relational trauma. When you’re hurt by the people that you love, it breaks and it builds.

I have experience in integrating spiritual awareness along with my counseling to help my clients work on and learn to cope and work through their issues. I am committed to providing quality mental health care through a holistic approach to people in need. I believe that all people deserve the opportunity to lead healthy, happy and productive lives.

When feelings of anxiety occur regularly and begin to interfere with your job, relationships, or other aspects of your daily life, it's time to meet with a caring health professional. My goal is to help you experience freedom from the debilitating effects of anxiety and improve your quality of life. I will work to help you and your family better understand and manage the anxiety that is affecting your relationships.

Are you wanting to change old patterns, self-limiting beliefs, and habits that have been keeping you from being your authentic self? I can work with you through therapy, using an integrating approach (mind, body, spirit). When it comes to counseling I believe that approaches and techniques play a large part in the therapeutic process, however, it begins with building trust between the client and counselor. It is always my goal to create a safe place for empathy and understanding.

No matter our age, race, socioeconomic group, educational level, sexuality, spiritual affiliation (or non-affiliation), or cultural backgrounds we all face the inevitable challenges of life, none of us are exempt from this. Most times we are able to navigate victoriously through these experiences, but sometimes our challenges can leave us so overwhelmed that we have difficulty understanding our situations and coping with our circumstances which makes it very difficult to find a way to overcome them. Ultimately we all want to "live our best life" and sometimes we may need to reach for a trusting hand to help us manifest it.

I would like to acknowledge and congratulate you on the courage required to take the steps necessary towards achieving your desired goals. The counseling process can be intimidating as it requires you to entrust your current behaviors, thoughts, feelings and concerns to a licensed professional in the hopes of relieving problematic symptoms. My goal is to assist you in this process by providing a warm and empathetic environment in which you are able to discuss, explore, and decide the direction you would like to take. My approach serves to teach you the skills and techniques to effectively identify current problems with confidence.

Therapy is not a sign that you have failed to figure it all out nor is it an indication that your marriage or relationship is over. Rather, it is the beginning of a process of getting unstuck and getting healthy. We regularly get our car serviced even though it’s not broken. We need to take care of ourselves and our relationships as well. Getting to a healthier place is a lot easier to navigate with someone who is outside of your situation.

I believe each person is an expert of his or her life. You already possess the tools within yourself to make positive changes.

We will work together to help you recognize any thoughts or maladaptive behaviors that can produce painful feelings, that can lead to unresolved issues. Together we will discover your choices along with therapeutic goals to help you reach your full potential.

I believe that the therapy process is rooted in rapport, transparency, and hard work between the therapist and client. My approach is direct, honest, and straightforward. I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and judgment free space for clients to unload and discuss their most intimate life concerns. I enjoy working with other professionals (teachers, healthcare workers) experiencing burnout; who are wanting to learn skills in order to create work/life balance, manage stress levels, and cultivate happy/healthy relationships. This might involve learning to say "no" with boundary implementation and assertive communication.

I provide a safe, nonjudgemental environment for you to process anything you may need to process. I have a niche of helping clients recover from narcissistic abuse.
