Welcome to Zigray Counseling Services! I believe in the importance of the mind-body connection. Mental health is essential to our overall well-being. My counseling style encourages healthy lifestyle changes in order to improve mental health and wellness. It is also predicated on establishing a trusting relationship that allows for a non- judgemental atmosphere. I believe that change occurs in relation to others.

As a young adult I sought out counseling to help me navigate my life's issues. It felt most beneficial when a therapist, by listening and understanding me, in a nonjudgmental, supportive and educational way, seemed to meet me where I was at both emotionally and mentally- giving me hope, the tools, the time and the motivation I needed to heal.These healing experiences gave me the desire to help others. Thus following their positive examples, I have approached everyone's treatment on an individual basis- knowing everyone is different emotionally and mentally, and are coming from different life experiences.

Life can be hard to figure out sometimes, it can be even harder if you don't have people to support you. Should I go left? Should I go right? Should I stay or should I go? It never ceases to amaze me how far having a confidential and sympathetic ear can be supportive. I have found the greatest gift anyone can ever give to anyone is to simply be present. That is one of the greatest gifts Christ gave- Himself!

The voice in the head has a life of its own. Most people are at the mercy of that voice; they are possessed by thought & by the mind. Since the mind is conditioned by the past, you are then forced to reenact the past again and again. This quote by Eckart Tolle is at the core of my belief in what troubles most of us. We live in our minds, incessantly thinking about our fears, failings, troubled relationships, losses, & shortcomings. We spend too much time inside the mind. The trouble is that when we treat our thoughts and feelings as facts, we allow anxiety, doubt, sadness, hopelessness & self-loathing to take hold and thrive.
