McDonald, Colleen M.F.T.

Therapy is a process that offers individuals the opportunity to expand their lives. I believe that a safe, and empathic therapeutic relationship is where much of our growth takes place. It is here that I intend to meet the clients' belief system and cultural identity to facilitate growth. I have had the opportunity to live and work on three continents and travel extensively, which often affords me a small window of experience into others' worlds. I will guide and empower you on your journey to learn to create change and experience your relationships and life transitions in a more productive and satisfying manner. We will work together in a self-directed growth process. To create change I believe in a holistic approach to therapy. My focus is the body, mind, spirit and its integration to create a balanced person and a fulfilling life. I have found over the years that utilizing a variety of approaches to gather information and connect with clients is most effective. We have different learning styles and because of this, to make the most of therapy, I work eclectically; e.g. family systems theory, cognitive, mind/body awareness; mindfulness, breathe work, yoga postures, etc. I recognize that each of us is unique with different needs in our therapeutic growth process.
