Lovejoy Counseling Services Lark L. Lovejoy is a licensed professional counselor who offers compassionate individual, couple, fa Welcome to Lovejoy Counseling Services! Lovejoy, MS, LPC

I provide counseling for adults, couples, and groups, and I would love to support you in your journey of self-discovery. Counseling has been a huge support to me in my life, and it is with great joy that I offer support to you today! We all face difficult times in which we experience challenging emotions, we have to make tough life decisions, and we have obstacles in our relationships. Counseling can provide a safe container to explore your issues with compassion and insight and gain understanding. Tools are also available to widen your horizons and give you new ways to navigate your path. I believe in the self-actualizing principle that each person is moving toward their highest potential. As one brings awareness to and integrates parts of the self, an alignment with meaningful purpose can be uncovered. If you would like to find out more and would like a free phone consultation, just give me a call at 541-708-2024. You can also email me at lark@lovejoycounseling.com and feel free to visit our website www.lovejoycounseling.com
The journey of healing is a courageous endeavor. Your willingness to meet your self can open a world of possibilities.
