Individual Counseling
50 minute session | $135
You might find yourself replaying conversations, second-guessing your decisions, or feeling unsure of who you are and what you need. Carrying that on your own can feel heavy.
I offer a space to step back and make sense of what’s going on underneath it all. Together, we’ll look at the thoughts and reactions shaping your experience so you can begin to feel more clear, more confident, and more like yourself again.
Common Challenges Individuals Bring to Counseling
Feeling Disconnected From Yourself
You may feel out of touch with your own needs, emotions, or sense of worth. Life can feel heavy or muted, as if something inside you has gone quiet. You might struggle to trust yourself, feel unsure of what you want, or wonder whether you truly matter to others.
Living with Persistent Self-Criticism or Shame
An inner voice of judgment, guilt, or inadequacy may feel constant and exhausting. You might feel unlovable, unwanted, or “not enough,” even when others care about you. This can leave you feeling alone with your pain and unsure how to find compassion for yourself.
Feeling Anxious, On Edge, or Always Bracing
You may experience frequent worry, intense emotions, or a sense of being on high alert. Your mind might scan for what could go wrong, making it hard to feel settled or at ease. You may feel overwhelmed by uncertainty, struggle to trust yourself or others, or feel afraid of your own emotional reactions.
Struggling in Relationships or Feeling Alone
You might long for closeness but feel unsure how to reach for it, or fear being a burden, rejected, or misunderstood. Conflict, miscommunication, or emotional distance with others can leave you feeling isolated, unseen, or unsure whether anyone truly has your back.
Difficulty Expressing Needs or Setting Boundaries
You may find it hard to speak up for yourself or ask for what you need, especially if doing so feels risky or unfamiliar. This can lead to resentment, emotional exhaustion, or a pattern of putting others first while feeling invisible or depleted.
Feeling Stuck or Lost During Life Transitions
Major changes or internal shifts can leave you feeling uncertain, untethered, or unsure of your next step. You may feel helpless, directionless, or disconnected from a sense of purpose, especially if old ways of coping no longer work.
How Individual Counseling Works
You can expect a simple and supportive process from the start. Therapy begins with a free 15-minute phone consultation to make sure it feels like a good fit. If you decide to move forward, I’ll send a few forms to better understand your background and what you’re hoping for before we meet. Our first 50-minute session is a bit more structured, where we’ll talk through what brings you in, go over how counseling works, and begin setting goals together. After that, sessions tend to feel more natural and focused on what you need in the moment.
I use Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy and Internal Family Systems informed work to help you understand your emotions, recognize patterns, and connect more deeply with yourself. Above all, you can expect a space that is steady, compassionate, and free of judgment as you begin to feel clearer, more connected, and more grounded in your everyday life.
