Restoring Waters Counseling, LLC

(CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS) Hi, I'm Charlene. I am a self professed "nerd" with an endless interest and passion for learning about how the mind and brain work, and more importantly, how to use this learning to foster improved relationships with ourselves and others so that we can live a more harmonious and peaceful life. As a therapist, I can help you transform the struggles with the symptoms of OCD, Anxiety, and Perfectionism that keep you disconnected from your innate qualities of calm, confidence, and clarity so you feel empowered in facing life's challenges and can live more freely always knowing how to return to your inner calm. When working with me you will be guided to: *Learn how to be more aware and in tune with your emotions including the ones that feel out of control or overwhelming. *Understand and rewire the memories of negative emotional experiences and beliefs that you may have felt stuck with. *Change how you see and relate with your mental health symptoms and inner struggle. *Learn how to use the struggles and suffering in your life as a useful tool for your own personal growth. *Identify and release the emotional burdens that may lie the root of your symptoms.
