Life Counseling
Head Knowledge
Vicky has both a Master and Educational Specialist degree from Indiana University in Counselor Education and has more than 35 years experience assisting individuals and families. She offers her expertise to help you clear away what no longer serves you and then create the life you really want.
It takes great courage to ask for what you want. It takes even more courage to look within for your answers. If you are to be truly empowered and be in right relationship with your true self, you must take responsibility for the actions you choose and the only way to do this is to discern and decide for yourself! You can use your Head mind to try and figure out what's happening in your life. You can read lots of books, attend workshops and retreats to enrich your understanding; however, the deepest, most powerful way to truly find balance within is to trust the wisdom of your Heart. Vicky can help you do that by keeping you honest, assisting you with creating clear intentions for your life and helping you identify the steps required to reach your goals.
You must make the first step by making the call!
Monetary gifting investment is based on a sliding scale of $70 - 90 per hourly session that is determined by you.
ASK YOURSELF:
If I were to die tomorrow, would I be satisfied with my life?
Are my relationships fulfilling?
Does my work support my life?
What do I want from my life?
HOW DOES LIFE COUNSELING WORK?
It really is simple. Life Counseling begins with a face-to-face visit. This give each of us an opportunity to get a real "feel" for whether we are a compatible match. Much like finding the right person to cut your hair or the right doctor you feel comfortable with, there must a level of trust felt in the first session or two in order to really delve into your personal story. Depending on the distance, Zoom may be used for future sessions. If you are to be of service to those around you, you must be in balance within yourself. It is called 'sacred self care.' Remember: "You can only give others what you give yourself!" Begin within!

Heart Wisdom
Vicky spent Mondays for 7 years sitting in circle with a Cherokee Teacher, and 13 years total apprenticing the sacred ways of his people. These teachings and ceremonies were what re-connected and awakened her wise Heart. Dancing Flame Medicine Lodge was established in 2004 to offer these ancient ways of healing and being in Right Relationship with your "Head and Heart."
With the assistance of Nature, the old ways of our ancestors can bring seekers back in balance with their "Head and Heart," for when both work in harmony you can be your true, authentic self. Talk therapy satisfies your Head and offers insights into the human experience. However, your Heart has a voice as well, it is called your "instinct."
Hurtful events of the past need to be acknowledged, felt and carefully examined for what lessons were learned from the experience. Whatever is calling forth, it is imperative that old beliefs based on societal norms are replaced or modified with the wisdom of your Heart. With the Head knowledge gained, the past can be released to make room for the new growth waiting to emerge from the wisdom of your Heart. If you are stuck in the past, it is impossible to move forward. For it is the Heart that holds the key to forgiveness and compassion that truly transforms and changes your life, and ultimately, the world. The most important relationship in your life is the one between your Head and Heart.
It is with the assistance of these old ways of working with Nature and ceremony that offers the "tools" to strength that relationship.
