Healing, growth, and a little bit of laughter to guide you through life’s challenges

What’s It Like to Work with a Therapist at Embodied Counseling?

Okay, let’s be real—seeing a therapist doesn’t always have to be all serious face-to-face, heart-to-heart moments (though there’s definitely a time for that). It’s not like the movies where you’re just laying back, talking about your childhood while they scribble notes on a notepad. At Embodied Counseling, we like to keep it real. And, let’s be honest, sometimes that means finding the humor in the mess that is life and using that laughter as a tool for healing.

Working with a therapist here is all about YOU—your story, your struggles, and your journey to a place of peace, freedom, and balance. Whether you’re navigating trauma, dealing with anxiety or depression, recovering from an eating disorder, working through a major life transition, or battling OCD, we meet you where you’re at and create a safe space for exploration, understanding, and growth. We’re here to walk you through those hard times and show you that healing doesn’t always have to look as heavy as it feels.

What’s the Process Like?

Therapy is a lot like a workout for your mind and soul—sometimes it’s a challenge, but it’s always worth it. Here’s what it looks like when you work with a therapist at Embodied Counseling:

  • Starting the Conversation: You’re going to feel nervous at first. It’s normal! But that’s exactly why we’re here—to guide you with compassion and zero judgment. We’re not here to tell you what to do; we’re here to listen, understand, and help you discover the tools you need to handle life’s challenges.
  • Getting Deep (But in a Comfortable Way): Whether it’s exploring past trauma, digging into anxiety triggers, or talking about that crazy chaotic season of life you’re in right now, our goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and safe. Sure, there might be tears sometimes (it’s okay, we’ve got tissues!), but there will also be moments of relief and lightness as we work through it together.
  • Finding Solutions, Together: Therapy isn’t just about talking in circles. We’ll get to the heart of things and start working through strategies, tools, and mindset shifts that you can actually use in your everyday life. We want you to feel empowered, whether it’s learning how to handle stress, navigate tough emotions, or develop healthier ways of relating to food and your body.
  • Laughing (A Lot): Okay, so we take your healing seriously, but we also believe in the power of humor. You might find yourself laughing about something that once felt so heavy—because humor helps us let go, and it’s a great tool for healing. You’ll never be judged for your quirks or struggles. We’ll roll with them and find the beauty in the journey, together.

It’s Okay to Not Have It All Figured Out (Yet)

Life can be complicated—sometimes it feels like it’s all over the place. But working with a therapist is about meeting yourself where you are, embracing the mess, and knowing that progress doesn’t always have to be linear. It’s about having someone by your side who gets it and who’s committed to supporting you on your path.

We understand that taking the first step toward therapy can feel huge—but we’re here to make the process as comfortable and empowering as possible. Let’s talk, laugh, and heal together as we navigate the ups and downs of life.
