Kathy Hardie-Williams, M.Ed, MS, NCC, LPC, LMFT Relationship Counseling for Families, Couples, Adolescents, and Individuals I am a Licensed Teacher turned Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in counseling high conflict families, couples, adolescents, and individuals who are ready to embrace a strong sense of self in order to improve their relationships. This is a process that must occur prior to increasing the emotional bond with others and includes identifying what you want, articulating what you want and need, taking ownership for your contribution to the problem, and increasing the capacity to accept and tolerate differences. However, before you can understand someone else, you must know who you are and what you need. Learning how to listen to your gut and having the courage to follow where it leads enables you to get the life you want and deserve, and you deserve to live your best life. Knowing what makes you tick lays the groundwork to help you achieve your authentic life. Within each person there is passion. Failing to recognize what that passion is and use it denies a key part of who you are. It impacts everything: relationships, partner choices, and how you spend your time. Sometimes you need help learning how to recognize what you know instinctively. My clients tell me "I get it". My objective in working with you is to use a direct approach in helping you identify what keeps you stuck in your personal relationships with yourself and/or others. Whether it is learning to improve your relationships, increase self understanding, clarify your value system, or put your life into perspective, you have the power to take charge of your life and the quality of the relationships you build. I can help you get there. I will hear you, relate to the challenges you face, and will help you move past your obstacles so that you can live the life you are meant to live. I would love to talk with you today. Please call 503.206.5578 for
