Welcome to Bloom Counseling Services, PLLC. Whether you are actively searching for support, or just curious what this whole "therapy" thing is, I am so glad you are here. My name is Heather and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and practice owner of Bloom Counseling Services, PLLC. At the beginning of my counseling career, I was asked the question, "Where are you going to be in ten years?". My answer wasn't to retire in the government job I was working in during that time, but working towards owning my own practice doing what I love and supporting the community. Ten years ago, that felt like a pipe dream, but here we are!
WHY BLOOM?
The phrase written over four hundred years ago attributed to Frances de Sales, Bishop of Geneva "bloom where you are planted", stuck with me in this season of life. To "bloom", doesn't mean to survive in the life that we live, but to thrive and flourish despite our circumstances.
For you see, every person comes with a lifetime of experiences. Some of those experiences may have been stressful and traumatic, creating some intense emotional responses. To "bloom" is to make the choice every day to be stronger from those experiences. All of those experiences shape us into who we are today and into the person we want to become (those two people aren't always the same). It is ultimately up to us to put in the work.
At Bloom Counseling Services, PLLC, the goal is to help every person that enters our door "bloom where they are planted", no matter the season in life. My role as the therapist is to assist and support the process of putting in that work! The hardest part is searching for support and taking that leap. If you are here to seek that support, the hard part is over and you are strong and capable of doing hard things. Now's your time to BLOOM and to THRIVE.
