Changing Lives Consulting Services

Anyone who has ever had a therapist, knows that finding a good one is a seemingly impossible task. When I first moved from Virginia to DC and had to leave my old therapist, I dreaded having to start fresh with someone new. There are dozens upon dozens of counselors listed in my health insurance’s directory. Who should I choose? I got fortunate that the person I choose, based largely on location and experience, turned out to be very compatible.
For years, I’ve thought that counseling was simply a waste of time. I have had very negative experiences with therapy in the past. I would talk for an hour and pay for little to no input from the counselor. My entire perspective on counseling changed when I began seeing my previous counselor at the Women’s Center in Vienna, and then Nancy Henningsen. After reading her biography and services on her website, I arranged an initial session.
It was apparent from the very first session that Nancy Henningsen is unlike most therapists I’ve had. Not only did I always receive helpful input, but she offered refreshing perspectives. I tend to go on tangents, but she kept me focused. Nancy provided very constructive criticism without casting an ounce of judgement. She uses various methods and techniques to help her clients, such as the «sand tray therapy» which I found to be both fun and insightful at the same time.
After six months of seeing Nancy, I had made tremendous progress. I truly regret having to leave her and to find a counselor in Illinois all over again. However, I can take what I have learned from my sessions with Nancy and apply them to my future endeavors. Overall, I believe Nancy Hennigsen to be superior in her profession and I would recommend anyone who seeks a highly qualified and influential counselor to her.
