Ciera Barth, LPC

Do you feel overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change? Are you going through the motions: answering texts, emails, and phone calls, while feeling exhausted, lost, or disconnected from yourself and others? You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, or past or current trauma that’s affecting your day-to-day life, relationships, and ability to function or focus at home or work. Maybe you’re feeling pressure to live up to your own or others’ expectations, but instead feel like you’re falling short. If you’ve been questioning, wondering, or hoping that your life could feel better, more manageable, more meaningful, more like you, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to keep navigating it on your own. We believe that every life matters and that people can change, grow, and find hope—even in the midst of life’s storms. At Braving Life’s Storms Counseling, we take a personalized approach to care. We begin by understanding what led you to seek counseling and determining whether our practice is the right fit for your needs. From there, we work with you to create a clear plan of action, with meaningful steps designed to help you reach your goals. Along the way, we recognize and celebrate every step forward—no matter how small. We offer inclusive, client-centered care using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), faith-based counseling, and person-centered therapy. All services are provided through virtual appointments, giving you the flexibility to begin healing, growing, and moving toward the life you want. We are committed to providing a safe, respectful, and affirming space for LGBTQIA+ individuals. Helping people is our passion, and we believe that in every counseling relationship, both the client and the therapist are changed through the process. Whether you’re still on the fence or ready to begin, we’re here to support you in learning how to set healthy boundaries and change patterns of behavior that have kept you stuck in cycles that no longer serve you. We believe healing is a process, and we’re here to walk alongside you through it. Our goal is to help you feel better, heal, and move toward the life you want to live. Contact us today for a free 15-minute consultation, and let’s take the first step forward together.
