Welcome to
Maintain & Grow Counseling
Where your healing journey begins…
Have you been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and powerless?
Are you unsure of where to begin?
Maintain and Grow is a personal mantra that recognizes that consistency brings results. I have found in my life and in my clients’ lives, we don’t always have to try hard to set bigger and better goals for ourselves, when we maintain healthy habits, growth naturally happens. Let’s work together to understand your patterns, develop preferred habits, and move you closer to the places you want to go.
Hi, I’m Iva.
I believe that…
Newton’s First law of physics teaches us that “objects in motion stay in motion” and “objects at rest stay at rest until acted upon by an external force”. This applies to humans, once we’re in motion, we stay in motion - growing, changing, and moving closer to optimal functioning.
However, we all lose steam sometimes, and it’s common to get stuck “at rest”. This is such a human thing to do! When this happens, we need that “external force” to get back on track. Setting ourselves back in motion can be as small as brushing our teeth in the morning, getting out of the house just once, asking for help from a friend, or *wink wink* working with a therapist! I can help you get unstuck and rediscover the momentum that will move you toward the goals, hopes, and life you want for yourself!
Are you ready to take the first step?
