Growth, Empowerment and Lasting change. Together we will identify stuck points or blocks to your sense of peace and well-being by creating a safe space and becoming curious about what is truly important to you. I will always seek first to understand as fully as possible your view of an issue. We will work to identify old behaviors and beliefs that are unhelpful or once helpful but no longer serve you. Then move forward by allowing new insights and emotional healing to emerge.

In everyday life, we don't always get the chance to express how we are really feeling or share our struggles in an honest way. Psychotherapy provides a unique environment where you can share your emotions and true self and be met with empathy and the full attention of another person. In our sessions, I will be there to support you on your journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. Through this relational approach, you'll discover patterns you want to change, increase self-awareness and gain coping skills that work for you.

As licensed psychotherapists, we provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for helping our clients to process emotions, traumas, and explore their personal experiences to gain insight and make progress toward their goals.

We will utilize psychotherapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in getting closer to where you would like to be.

Life presents an array of stresses, situations, and challenges within relationships that can be overwhelming. Adapting to new circumstances disrupts our sense of normalcy. With almost four decades of experience, Dr. Petit has provided invaluable therapy and life coaching, particularly focusing on nurturing loving relationships. Feelings of anxiety, disappointment, and anger can intensify due to painful past experiences, including hurtful abuses and betrayals. This leaves life feeling bewildering and burdensome. My approach fosters growth and healing by acknowledging the past, present, and future within a secure environment, guiding you toward a well-lived life.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

I have spent many years providing individual psychotherapy. Out of all those years of experience, I have developed a skill set focused on quickly getting to the heart of the issues. I complete a thorough family system assessment looking for root causes of issues and am especially observant for any recurring themes in an individual's life that may be interfering with success. I ask the right questions to get the answers that are within you. Hopefully, you will experience self awareness, revelations, and "ah-hah" moments that will set you free from lifelong issues with low self esteem, fear, and everything holding yo back.

With a Master’s degree in counseling, I’m trained to treat a wide variety of common mental health issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, and relationship issues. However, my passion is helping stressed out men to overcome their barriers, bad-habits, and insecurities to experience healing and breakthrough. I do so using my training in counseling, my experience in ministry, and my expertise as a trained addiction coach. At Lion Counseling, our mission is to help you escape the cages that hold you back and become the lion God created you to be.

Clients have described me as compassionate, empathetic, highly skilled, wise, thoughtful, kind and patient. I deeply value my profession. An important part of my job as a professional counselor is helping clients connect with the best parts of themselves and learn to use those strengths to heal. We all hurt from time to time; it's part of being human. As holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl said, "Suffering unites us all." Sometimes life is very hard, painful and too much, and a caring professional is needed to help shed a little light on the darkness. I am collaborative in my therapeutic approach, working with you, not at you, and giving my all to help you create a healthier, happier you.
