Meaningful Pathways

Meaningful Pathways I provide counseling services for adolescents, adults, and families. I specialize in addressing childhood abuse/trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss.

After working in the mental health field for a little over a decade, in various settings including residential treatment centers, psychiatric hospitals, advocacy centers, and school settings, I decided to open the doors to my own private practice - Meaningful Pathways, PLLC. Creating a space for safety and attunement, a place where perfectly imperfect is celebrated and showing up just as you are becomes easy. People often ask me why I do what I do or how, and while I admit that it is difficult at times, it's about finding light in the darkness, finding hope in the face of despair. And for me, that's my gift - I get the opportunity to walk beside someone during their most difficult time(s), I get the opportunity to see them continue to move forward, to have the ability to reflect on the past and gain both knowledge and understanding of how it has shaped them today, seeing them find the strength in their vulnerability, compassion for all parts of themselves, and the courage to show up just as they are. Therapy looks different for everyone and everyone's reason for beginning therapy is equally as different; but what is similar about all the individuals I've seen throughout the years is their strength - many times they don't see their own strength in the beginning, but believe me when I say, asking for help takes strength, and it's with that strength that we find a place for growth.

Wise words Wednesday:

"We are heading into dark times, and you need to be your own light. Do not accept brutality and cruelty as normal even if it is sanctioned. Protect the vulnerable and encourage the afraid. If you are brave, stand up for others. If you cannot be brave—and it is often hard to be brave—be kind. But most of all, never lose sight of who you are and what you value."

— Sarah Kendzior

Further evidence of the importance of relationships on our health and wellbeing...

Challenge: replace “strong” with “ stoic” whenever you hear someone with limited emotional expression being described as “strong” and see how that fits.

For example: “While I was hurting just as much, I had to be strong for them”…. To “while I was hurting just as much, I had to be stoic for them.”

The words we choose carry weight. All too often, I hear lack of emotional expression described as “strength” which necessitates that showing emotion therefore is “weak.” Alas, neither of these perspectives are correct, because emotions and expression of them has nothing to do with a person’s strength or weakness…
