Summer Vazquez
CSW
If you’re reading this, you’re probably in a place where what you’re doing isn’t working and you need some help. You may be in search of reprieve from uncomfortable thoughts, feelings or behaviors. You may need to talk about your grief or trauma, or just gain more insight into life. You may be dealing with relationships that are difficult to deal with and are weighing on you. There are many reasons to seek out support and they are all welcome. Sometimes we just need time to talk to an impartial ear and some compassion to change our patterns, learn new skills, and work towards our goals. It is very empowering to have someone on our side to help steer us to find the answers from within.
Our day-to-day lives don’t leave much room for introspection and evaluation of our past and our trajectory. The daily pressures can build and build until they’re too much. It is inevitable in life for our old coping mechanisms and patterns to get in our way and no longer be useful. It is extremely frustrating to realize that our current methods aren’t helping our situation but it is also liberating. From that moment of pain and frustration we can gain empowerment, growth and change.

Often these challenges can affect the goals we have been striving towards in the past and influence the direction we are orienting ourselves towards when looking to the future. If you’re ready to get back on the path that leads your to peace and happiness, I’m ready to help.
I am not convinced there is any one “right way” of doing things, and I find a lot of value in exploring the motivations and philosophies that drive our thoughts and actions, in an accepting and unbiased way. I believe in approaching people from a place of understanding all of their parts that make their whole person. I also value compassion, empathy-building, and trying to understand other people’s perspectives to overcome interpersonal conflicts and to grant others with the same respect of freedom-of-thought that we all deserve.

After a decade of service, Paul decided he wanted to support people in a different way and to help them heal after some of these major struggles, which drove him towards a career change by pursuing the counseling profession. Paul has served people of many backgrounds, cultures, and faiths and understands that no one person is the same when it comes to addressing their individual needs.

The human experience is different for all of us at different times. This journey can bring us moments of great joy and love, but it can also bring moments of sadness and stress. Sometimes, it may feel that the difficult days are outweighing the good. Some days it may feel as if the experience itself is weighing you down and has you feeling stuck. It is normal to feel this way sometimes. It is human to feel lost and unsure. Just know that you are not alone and it is possible to turn your experience around. Asking for a guiding hand and support is sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself. That is what I am here for. I believe in self-compassion, acceptance and positivity. I believe that we can work together to help you get back on track with the human experience you want to have.

Asking for help is one of the hardest things we have to do as humans. When we are at what feels like our lowest point, it feels even harder. Sometimes life can feel overwhelming with expectations that are put on us by others and ourselves. It can be confusing, painful, and lonely. No matter what challenges you may be facing in your life right now, you don’t have to face them alone. Imagine what your life would look like if you regained your sense of self, and had the strength to face and overcome these challenges. Together, we can work to find the clarity and balance that you are seeking.

You might find yourself barely getting through each day, wondering who to trust, or feeling discouraged at the state of your life or your relationships.

Cassidy enjoys helping clients create and set goals for their future through finding ways to feel secure and happy in themselves and their relationships.
