Children & Teen Counseling (Ages 10–18)

Children and teens often struggle to express what they are feeling in words. They may show emotional pain through anxiety, sadness, anger, withdrawal, behavior changes, difficulty at school, or conflict at home. We provide a supportive space where children and teens can feel safe, understood, and better able to make sense of what they are experiencing.

We work with children and teens ages 10–18 who may be struggling with:

* Anxiety and stress                                       *Self-esteem 
* Depression or sadness                                *Emotional regulation 
* Trauma                                                         *Family conflict
* Grief                                                             *Identity exploration
*Social Difficulties                                         *LGBTQIA + affirming care

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)

These approaches help children and teens express themselves, develop healthier coping skills, process difficult experiences, and build confidence and emotional resilience.

Individual Counseling

Individual counseling provides a safe, supportive space to understand yourself better, work through emotional struggles, and create meaningful change. We help individuals navigate anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, self-worth struggles, and the impact of past experiences.

We believe that many emotional struggles are rooted in deeper patterns, past wounds, and the ways we have learned to protect ourselves. Our goal is not only to provide relief, but to help you better understand yourself and move toward lasting healing.

Our work with individuals may incorporate:

                             *Adlerian Therapy
                             *Attachment-Based Therapy
                             *Internal Family Systems (IFS)
                             *Somatic Psychotherapy
                             *Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

These approaches help clients explore the connections between past experiences, emotions, relationships, beliefs, and the body. Together, we work to identify patterns, heal emotional wounds, strengthen self-awareness, and build healthier ways of relating to yourself and others. 

Couples Counseling

Relationships can be one of the greatest sources of comfort and connection, but they can also be one of the greatest sources of pain when communication breaks down or emotional needs go unmet. Couples counseling provides a space to slow down, better understand one another, and begin rebuilding trust, connection, and emotional safety.

We work with couples who may be struggling with:

              *Communication difficulties                  *Trust issues or infidelity
              *Conflict and recurring arguments        *Feeling misunderstood or unheard 
              *Emotional disconnection                      *Different attachment needs/styles
                                        
Our couples counseling approach is informed by:

                 *Imago Relationship Therapy                 *How We Love: Relationship Styles

These approaches help couples understand the deeper patterns that drive conflict, identify unmet needs, recognize how past experiences affect the relationship, and learn healthier ways to communicate and connect.

                            Premarital Counseling

Premarital counseling helps couples build a strong foundation before marriage by creating open conversations around communication, conflict, expectations, values, finances, intimacy, family, and future goals.

We use the Prepare/Enrich program to help couples better understand their strengths and areas for growth. Prepare/Enrich is a research-based assessment and counseling tool designed to help couples strengthen their relationship and prepare for a healthy, connected marriage.

Premarital counseling can help couples:

                         *Improve communication                                     * Build emotional/relational connections
                         *Understand differences and expectations         *Strengthen confidence entering marriage
                         *Develop healthy conflict resolution skills          *Explore values, finances, and future goals

                                  Grief Counseling

Grief can touch every part of life. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a major life change, or another painful loss, grief counseling can provide a place to process your emotions and begin healing.

We understand that grief is not something to “get over.” Instead, it is something to move through with compassion, support, and understanding.

Our grief counseling approach is influenced by:

                      *The Grief Recovery Method 
                      *The Life Recovery Workbook for Grief
These approaches help clients better understand grief, identify unresolved emotions, process painful experiences, and take steps toward healing while still honoring the memory of what has been lost.
