Beth Nelson LLC is a small private practice offering individual counseling.

Counseling

Therapy is a unique and highly individual experience with the outcome determined by the effort and motivation you bring to the work. In my counseling approach I focus on exploring client insight and facilitating empowerment. I feel that the client is the expert in his or her life, that the wisdom is ultimately there.

You may have an issue to fine tune, a road block to overcome, a transformation to uncover.

Mostly, I do traditional talk therapy within a base of Transpersonal Therapy. Transpersonal therapy is holistic. Psychological, physical and spiritual development can be integrated to facilitate the awakening of personal awareness. Some concepts of transpersonal therapy are

Recognize and express feelings
Recognize and accept self
Recognize mind-body connections
Recognize the present moment and be present

Yoga (as a mind-body connection)

"Yoga, an ancient but perfect science, deals with the evolution of humanity. This evolution includes all aspects of one's being, from bodily health to self-realization. Yoga means union - the union of body with consciousness and consciousness with the soul. Yoga cultivates the ways of maintaining a balanced attitude in day-to-day life and endows skill in the performance of one's actions." ~B.K.S. Iyengar

Mindfulness (as a mind-body connection)

One definition of mindfulness that I appreciate is that it is attention in the present moment, without judgment.

As a counselor, I have seen how yoga and mindfulness create a safe place to be still and look inward. Restorative poses can help with stress management, anxiety, depression and more. Mindfulness can reduce stress and facilitate recovery from a negative experience(s).

Of course, integrating yoga and mindfulness into counseling is completely up to the client - simply a tool that can be used.

Create a place where there are limitless possibilities.
