Mental Health Counselor - Limited Permit, MHC-LP Practice: Resilience LabGeorgette believes that the most effective way to create a fulfilling life is to tune into our own inner world. This happens naturally when we learn about ourselves, explore what we think and feel, and start to take care of our minds and bodies. As a creative therapist, she enjoys tapping into her clients' creative sides, which she believes are a window into their true selves.
In session, Georgette uses research-proven approaches like psychodynamic therapy to help clients understand their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and to introduce changes that can create the life they want.
In order to heal the mind, we have to heal our bodies too. That's why Georgette encourages her clients to start a healthy living routine that works for them. She incorporates mindfulness and breath-work in sessions to help clients ease their minds when they feel overwhelmed. In her practice, Georgette promotes self-compassion and self-love, believing that no one can reach their full potential without these things
