Hello, My name is Ardean. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 11 years of experience working as a chaplain and 15 years as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, spiritual problems, life and career challenges, I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, short term brief, solution-focused, and person-centered counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
I want to support you in the best way possible. Good results are achieved with regular communication with your counselor. It's even better when those sessions are live--by chat, phone or video. The best results come with weekly video sessions with your counselor. My goal is to help you achieve your goals as quickly as possible.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and walk along side you.
I look forward to working with you!I

Over the years Ardean has been such a kind, caring listening ear in my life. Her wisdom and ability to give a new perspective really saved me from a dark place. I'm grateful that she can be honest with me and help me to express what I'm feeling. She also gave me some work sheets that were admittedly hard to get through but really helped me show progress over a long term and it feels really good. I appreciate her work!

Ardean has been instrumental in helping me verbalize some of my major inner problems and had helped giving me professional direction in learning how to deal with them, thereby empowering me. A great listener and problem solver.
