Tracey D. Bauer, M.A. LMFT
I believe that the best way to predict the future is to help create it! I use a counseling approach that is positive, active and solution-oriented, with the goal of helping my clients achieve hope, fulfillment and growth in their personal lives and relationships.
Couples Counseling: I specialize in relationship and marriage counseling and have advanced training two of the most renowned and successful approaches to marital and relationship therapy, each of which have been scientifically validated, Gottman Method Couples Therapy & Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. I work with each couple to create a personalized plan that will help them improve their friendship, improve communication, help to productively manage conflict, and achieve secure connection and shared meaning.
Individual Personal Growth Counseling & Life Coaching: I help my clients learn to create their Best Life! Sometimes we find ourselves at a place in life where we feel stuck or overwhelmed. We know we need to make some changes but we don't know quite what to do or how to begin. Personal growth counseling & Life Coaching lends that helping hand to take the next step. We may need to make a decision, change a bad habit, deal with a relationship, make a career change or just want to feel happier about life in general. Personal growth counseling can help!
Additional Background: As a former Naval Intelligence Officer, Multimedia Producer and recorded Vocal Performing Artist, I also bring a rich and diverse base of life experience to my clients. I am also the founder and owner of The Center for Personal & Relationship Growth.
