I came from a family who believed worry and anxiety was a primary love language and they used unhealthy coping skills including drugs, alcohol, and gambling. I know first-hand that it is difficult to break family patterns and it is not a one-time fix. I understand how mental illness and addiction impact the whole family. I myself was well into my adulthood before I realized that just because I was not abusing drugs and alcohol, I was caught in the insanity by trying to control those family members who were as well as those who I thought were enabling. I went to therapy and learned how to set and maintain healthy boundaries.

The therapist's response is to come alongside the client to provide professional and competent care.Counseling is most helpful when there is a relationship between client and therapist that is honest, empathic, and committed; and provides awareness and personal growth. I believe the therapist and the therapeutic relationship serves as a mirror to the client whereby the client can view his/her reflection in a setting of acceptance, affirmation, change, and hopefully - healing. The client's journey to wholeness and healing is personal and self-directed and the therapist joins only by invitation of the client.
