Jeremy enjoys helping people who have experienced physical trauma, emotional abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorder. His counseling style is driven by the belief we are called to care for and love those, who struggle and need help. Sometimes in life, we begin to lose our purpose and meaning, and the quality of our lives begins to suffer. Stress, anxiety, sadness, as well as a multitude of other feelings, can flood our minds and prevent us from living meaningful and productive lives. Our underlying beliefs, and core values, play a role in this. Jeremy’s primary treatment modalities include cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, client-centered techniques as well as solution-focused therapy. Jeremy is active in his Christian faith and is a faithful believer in the great commission. Soli Deo Gloria

Dr. Cynthia Curnan
About Dr Cynthia Before I went to school to become a psychotherapist, I was a teacher of Inner Guidance. I also taught the curriculum to become a teacher of Inner Guidance. We all have powerful internal senses that we tend to neglect: intuition, insight, instinct, imagination and deeper intelligence that grows sharper the more we use it. Too often, our personal growth becomes confined at the surface of ourselves by the effects of childhood trauma and how we’re raised. Sometimes we don’t know there is so much more to us. Once we develop accurate self-knowledge and learn what part of us is doing our thinking and making our decisions, then self mastery is within reach. I help people unravel their personal predicaments and develop self mastery. Once we become more greatly empowered - we are equipped to know what we want in life and how to manifest it. I received my CA license (lmft2980) in 1992, received my PhD in psychology in 1996. I wrote/published a book, “The Care and Feeding of Perfectionists “, 1998. Often we spot perfectionism in others but cannot recognize it ourselves. Many of us believe the Perfectionist is the best part of us, when really, it prevents us from liking ourselves. Each of us have at least 2 types of perfectionism (9 types in my book). If not neutralized, it blocks our growth by convincing us that we are not good enough. I help people replace perfectionism with a free internal Gift. The inner drive toward Excellence- which springs from the Self - is a beautiful world away from the pain of perfectionism- which is a push from a wounded ego. Once we connect to our Inner Self, we see ourselves and our world as it really is. Then life, healing and accomplishments can become wondrous easy. Methods I use besides talk therapy: Identifying and healing trauma Conscious breathing Dream analysis Focused meditation Inner Guidance Inner Child work The necessity for humor. EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprogramming.) FLASH (offshoot of EMDR) Interactive hypnotherapy Developing self knowledge Dismantling perfectionism Becoming present and living in the moment Accepting personal power Goal setting Couples Counseling
