individual, couples & family Therapy in madison, wisconsin
Hi there, we are so glad you found us! We are here for you and ready to offer support.
We offer both individual and couple’s therapy for a wide range of presenting concerns for both adults and children. We specialize in working with people through the perinatal and postpartum period, provide child/adolescent therapy, and we love bringing couples and partners closer together via couple’s sessions.
We are passionate about supporting families using evidence-based approaches, regardless of where you are on your journey. We are also trained in trauma specific therapies including Brainspotting, EMDR, and TFCBT.
We don’t “fix” you or your identified problems, because we believe you already have many strengths and the inherent ability to change and grow.
You and your family already have many strengths and we will use those strengths to help you create change.
We collaborate with you to wonder, explore, and find more positive interactions and experiences.
It is our role to empower you to create change as defined by you, and to help you reach your full potential. We can’t wait to chat with you and understand your unique needs and goals.
“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
— Brené Brown
Our approach is strengths-based and grounded in family systems theory.
