You've Taken the Next Step Towards Finding Your Purpose
You want to find more purpose in your life.
Maybe you recognize patterns that need to change but just can’t figure out how to put change into action?
Maybe you're looking to make healthy, positive, long-lasting changes to ensure wholeness and live a satisfying life?
Maybe you’ve gotten through to the other side of a life-changing experience, and you are trying to rebuild and promote healing?
We are the practice for you.
The Relationship Between Therapist and Client Is Key
The key to successful change is the relationship between the therapist and the client. While techniques are important, authenticity, warmth, and empathy are integral for people to flourish in, and outside of, counseling. We strive to treat the whole person—mind, body and spirit—to help individuals and families decrease stress, enhance relationships, and realize overall greater health and well-being.
With delicate issues at stake, therapy must be a good fit between professional and client. If KKJ is not the right fit for you, we can make referrals based on our knowledge and working relationships with others in the community.
