About

My name is Walter Bowers and I am a licensed professional counselor or LPC for short. I have been licensed for more than 20 years and have more than 25 years of counseling experience. I have helped many clients make positive choices regarding problems that they have presented in counseling sessions with me. The approach that I use is rational choice and is based on Dr. Robert Glasser's Choice Theory. My approach Dr. Glasser's Choice Theory has been and continues to be an effective approach for helping clients to gain a better focus for living healthier lives. The theoretical approach helps clients to see that they can't change the past but have the ability to make better choices thereby preventing them from reliving the the past over and over again. Clients are taught ways to avoid being stuck thinking about things that they can't change. I teach clients how to apply the theory to their own lives which allows them to realize that the only things that they can control are their own behaviors. This is important to know because many times people who have come to see me were too focused on trying to change other people or too worried about events from the past. They were unable to function in the present because of being stuck on yesterday. I use a reality-based approach in counseling sessions that provides a foundation where you learn that the only behaviors that you will be able to control are your own. My focus My client focus is on individuals who struggle with relationship issues which include infidelity and trust issues. In addition, I provide services for those who are stressed for various reasons. Clients have been treated for anxiety, depression, and grief. Moreover, confusion about life choices and societal stress are also addressed using Glasser's theoretical approach. In a nutshell, the client focus includes anger management, depressed moods, grief, couples counseling, panic attacks, and conflict.
