A Different Way of Looking at Healing

Get to know the perspective & approach I bring to my work with others

Vicki Eaton, LCSW, MRE

It's been a privilege to be part of the healing journey of many people during my 30+ years as a therapist, and I would like to be part of yours, also.

What I do consists of three components: (1) I offer you a wide variety of practical tools and strategies so you can become your own counselor or life coach; (2) I help you find and develop the "Wise, Strong, Compassionate Part" of yourself to care for the "Parts" of yourself who feel anxious, sad, stressed, insecure, angry, or shamed; and (3) If you desire, I can help you connect with a source of love and light, known as God or Spirit.
After all these years I still love what I do! I am particularly passionate about helping people become freer to live their life according to how they were designed by God, and to be able to carry out their purpose and mission on earth.

Personal
I am married, have two adult children, a son-in-law, and two grandkids. Prior to becoming a therapist, I was a director of a Preschool/Day Care Center, a piano teacher, and a full-time, stay-at-home Mom. Some things I love to do are hiking in nature, singing and playing the piano, gardening, and I get particularly charged up about learning new things.
