Marie Rushforth

I am a Professional Counselor with 25+ years experience providing therapy for children, adolescents, adults, families and couples. It has been my experience that little in life is certain. Change is one of the few certain things everyone copes with and it requires transition and adaptation. Whether expected or sudden, welcome or uninvited, positive or negative, change creates stress. New or increased negative thoughts, emotions, and physical symptoms often emerge during times of change. Examples include sadness, guilt, depression, irritability anxiety, & isolation, disruption in sleep/appetite, & concentration. Symptoms can be mild or severe, interfering with performance in relationships, school or work. If you are experiencing difficulty with change, I can help. As a Board Certified Expert in Traumatic Stress and an Advanced Grief and Bereavement Facilitator, I am trained in various therapeutic approaches/techniques. I offer individualized treatment to transition/establish a 'New-Normal' in a healthy, meaningful, hopeful manner.
