"I am" statements can be more potent than we realize!

What you think over and over, you begin to believe, and what you believe, you become.

Love this perspective from and the Irish language. Try out this pattern disruption and see what it feels like to spin those "I am ____ " thoughts into "I have ___ on me".

Our Story...

If you’re here you may be wondering… where did Blue Boat Counseling come from? I realize it’s unconventional as practice names go, but its story starts when I was a kid. I loved blue, and it seemed to run deeper than just a favorite color. It went for all the typical things, but the practice name comes from our summer trips to amusement parks. I would get in line for the rides and always wait for the blue boat (or car or plane). Yes, this means I let other riders go ahead of me while I waited for blue, which always got a few looks. When I look back on that scene today, I realize I was just being the real me. And that blue boat is a symbol of being your true self, which is exactly what I try to help my clients find. So I decided there was no better symbol for my counseling practice than this one of authenticity and freedom to be yourself. I want my blue boat to be a reminder that you deserve to BE YOU.
