Searching for counseling can be intimidating, but you're here — congratulations on starting this journey!
I believe every person has a deeply rooted desire to be seen, heard, and genuinely cared for. Essentially, we all strive for healthy, meaningful, and genuine human connection in our lives. However, I’ve found this to be incredibly challenging to discover in today’s fast-paced and often disconnected world, which is why I founded Radiant Light Counseling Services. We provide authentic, compassionate, and professional Christian counseling services to those in need of support as they navigate a variety of mental health challenges.
We look forward to working with you,
Hi, I’m Hayley and I’m so glad you’re here.
APPROACH
We are here to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to express your thoughts and feelings because they matter. You may have a lot to say in some sessions, while other times we may explore through games or creativity. We don’t believe counseling is a one-size-fits-all type of activity. You are a unique individual, and your counseling should be unique as well. Our counselors have been trained in multiple modalities to fit your specific needs. If something isn’t working, we will pivot and try something else!
AUTHENTICITY
Being authentic in today’s world can be difficult. We often hide who we really are to appear perfect to others, fearing we won't be accepted or loved if we show our true selves. It's important to remember that it's okay not to have it all figured out; being human means having both strengths and weaknesses. This is what makes us unique and beautiful. Our counselors bring their authentic selves into sessions and encourage you to bring yours.
HONESTY
Counseling works best when both you and your counselor are honest and open. We understand that being vulnerable can be scary, but it builds the genuine connection we all seek. Sharing your thoughts helps your counselor know if they’re on the right track or need to adjust. You are the expert on your own life, and you know what’s working and what isn’t. We want your counseling experience to be successful, and we believe honesty is key to that success.
