Lake Oswego Counselor for Women, Couples, and ADHD

Susan Gulka, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)

Collaborative counseling with YOU.

Sometimes you look at your life and wonder “How did I get here?”  You are smart, creative, and have a LOT going on in your life – your job or business, your kids, your partner, your friends.  Is there anything left for you? 

I get it. 

I’ve been there too.  And that is why I LOVE working with people wanting to make a change to lose the chaos and create a more fulfilling life. This includes (but is not limited to) busy career women/moms, couples struggling to connect, as well as those touched by ADHD.  I love helping clients to slow things down, identify the strengths that have made them successful so far, and then add in new tips and insights that get them moving towards their goals.   

The result?  A more streamlined and focused life. A life more in line with your values.  Less chaos, less fighting with your partner and kids.  More peace and harmony.  

Bringing my years of experience to our counseling

I’m an avid reader of all things psychological — parenting, mindfulness, spirituality, human behavior, ADHD, trauma, anxiety…and the list goes on. Oddly enough, my background is in business. Yep – I was an Accountant in my early career!  After living the city life in Chicago, IL and then a 4-year stint in the Netherlands with my husband,  I stayed home to raise our girls for several years.  In that time I became a Business and Life Coach through Coach University and then went on to get my master’s degree in Marriage, Couples, and Family Counseling from George Fox University.

As a therapist, I want to get to know you and your unique qualities and strengths – the key indicators of your purpose on earth! I want to work with you to make the changes that allow you and your family to have the life, time, and connections you desire.  I will always strive to create a warm, comfortable, and safe environment for you to share YOU and your story as we work together to identify the areas you would like to address in your life — to let go of the craziness and move towards peace, fulfillment, and success.

If you are ready for more peaceful success in your life, schedule a free 20-minute consultation and I will help you figure out your next steps. I so look forward to meeting YOU!
