My Philosophy.
I create a safe harbor for you to share your concerns, struggles and challenges. I want to know who you are, your lived experiences and what currently tugs at your mind and heart. Counseling is a process of inner exploration. It is a path towards creating self-understanding, self-acceptance and opens the way towards greater health and happiness.
The common thread uniting us all is our humanity. We all experience times in our life when we feel confident, courageous and solid. We are able to show up in our life, make sound decisions, connect with others and navigate our way forward.
Yet, there are times when we are uncertain, challenged, stressed and wonder where our life is headed. Burdened with doubt or negative thinking, feeling a drop in mood state or an increase in anxiety, we experience the hardship our life and wonder if this is it.
I get that, for I too have navigated my way through difficult times, having experienced chronic illness, tremendous loss and painful heartbreak. I am here to tell you, there is hope. There is a way to be with and move through the disappointment, pain and hardship, regain your health, clarity and sense of self and rediscover joy.
Turning towards an experienced therapist, a therapeutic guide, is a sign of courage, strength and wisdom, and a path towards freedom and happiness.
“Dr. Nixon was my counselor for nearly 11 years, supporting me through my teenage, college and early adulthood stages of life. With her expert guidance, caring support and non-judgmental presence, I was able to make positive changes in my life, grow in confidence and become my own person.”
