Our Counseling Services
Individual Counseling
Whether you are dealing with major life changes, relational concerns, feeling anxious and overwhelmed, feeling depressed, or dealing with trauma, individual counseling could help you. I provide individual counseling for children, adolescents, and adults. I seek to provide a safe place for you to learn more about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences of the world. We will explore the systems you operate within, and the roles you play within those systems and relationships. I will challenge you to integrate what you learn about yourself into new ways of being that are authentic to you and are rooted within your individual goals. My goal is that when we end our time together an empowered and authentic you moves into the world.
Family Counseling
Our family are often the most impactful relationships we have, and the ones we carry with us as precursors in how we will relate to the world. Families can be our most valuable foundation; they can also be complex, stressful, isolating, and filled with discord. When it comes to our families we have a lot of emotion, which holds tremendous power to either create beauty or to create pain. Whether you are having difficulty with major changes in your family system, feeling disconnected, or dealing with the challenges of growing children, family therapy can help you reconnect, reorient, and find more effective ways of relating to one another. In family therapy, we will identify behavioral patterns, individual roles, and communication barriers. We will work together to foster acceptance, and accountability. We will integrate new ways of communicating and connecting which is authentic to your family’s needs and goals.
Couples Counseling
Are you experiencing major life changes and stressors such as parenthood, a big move, financial stress, infidelity, or infertility that are impacting your relationship? Do you feel distant from your significant other? Are you arguing more frequently? Are you stuck in unwanted cycles? Being in relationship with others is hard, but it can also be fun, intimate, safe, and healing. Couples counseling can help you and your partner with the interpersonal challenges you are experiencing in your relationship. We will consider each of your feelings, wants, and needs to work towards specific couple-focused goals to reduce conflict, and achieve greater intimacy and meaning in your relationship. We will focus on developing effective communication skills and specific tools to manage relational difficulties and find solutions. We will also strive to heal deep-rooted pain to establish authentic connection, appreciation, and acceptance. Life is hard, and couples counseling can help you, and your family, remain strong in the face of life’s most difficult challenges.
LGBTQ+ Group Counseling
Exploring and Integrating Identity
Finding, and living, your authentic self in a world trying to make you like everybody else can be difficult. The acute and chronic stress of being a member of a minority group, while trying to integrate, learn, and love your identity is often challenging. It can be disorienting to have your identity picked apart time and again, only to be left with the pieces to put back together again. Our group aims to provide a safe place for LGBTQ+ adults (18+) to process together, and learn to live authentically. The group will cover topics such as identity, authenticity, self-worth, values, spiritual / religious trauma, boundaries, and self-care. Groups run for 9 weekly sessions on Wednesday evenings from 6-7:30pm.
