THERAPY SERVICES at Kindful Place Therapy Center
Therapy that helps you feel understood—not just managed
Life can feel overwhelming in different ways at different stages.
Sometimes it shows up as big emotions in a child, anxiety in a teen, burnout in adulthood, or disconnection in a relationship.
If you’re here, something likely isn’t working the way you hoped—and you’re ready for things to feel different.
At Kindful Place, we offer trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming therapy that helps you understand what’s underneath the surface, so change feels meaningful, not forced.
Individual Therapy
Support for children, teens, and adults navigating stress, anxiety, and life transitions
Life can feel like a lot—whether it’s a child having meltdowns, a teen feeling overwhelmed, or an adult carrying too much for too long.
You might be noticing:
-
Big emotions, shutdowns, or behavior that feels confusing
-
Anxiety, stress, or constant overwhelm
-
Feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t working
-
Disconnection from yourself or uncertainty about what you need
In individual therapy, we focus on helping you (or your child):
-
Understand emotions and where they come from
-
Build regulation and coping skills that actually work
-
Feel more grounded, confident, and connected
-
Create meaningful, sustainable change in daily life
This includes child therapy, teen therapy, and therapy for adults, all tailored to each person’s unique needs and stage of life.


Couples Counseling
When you feel stuck in the same patterns and want to find your way back to each other
Relationships can be deeply meaningful—and also incredibly hard when communication breaks down.
You might be experiencing:
-
The same arguments over and over
-
Feeling unheard, misunderstood, or emotionally distant
-
Conflict that escalates quickly or never fully resolves
-
A sense that something is off, even if you can’t fully explain it
In couples therapy, we help you:
-
Slow down the patterns that lead to conflict
-
Understand each other’s perspectives and emotional needs
-
Communicate in ways that feel different—not just better
-
Rebuild connection, trust, and a sense of being on the same team
This isn’t about blame or “winning.”
It’s about creating a relationship that feels more connected, supportive, and secure.

Family Therapy
Support for families feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected
When one person is struggling, it often impacts the whole family. Over time, patterns can form that leave everyone feeling frustrated or unheard.
You might be noticing:
-
Ongoing conflict or power struggles
-
Miscommunication and tension at home
-
Feeling like nothing you try is working
-
Everyone caring but no one feeling understood
In family therapy, we help:
-
Make sense of each person’s experience
-
Shift patterns that keep everyone stuck
-
Improve communication in real, practical ways
-
Create a more calm, connected home environment
Because when the system begins to shift, everyone benefits.

Parent Support & Guidance
You don’t have to figure this out on your own
Parenting can feel overwhelming... especially when your child is struggling and nothing seems to be helping.
You might be feeling:
-
Unsure how to respond to your child’s behavior
-
Exhausted from trying everything
-
Worried you’re getting it wrong
-
Stuck between being supportive and setting limits
We work with parents to:
-
Understand what’s driving their child’s behavior
-
Learn practical, effective ways to respond
-
Feel more confident, calm, and supported
-
Strengthen connection with their child
You don’t need more pressure or perfection. You need support that actually helps.

Building Skills for Real-Life Change
Sometimes families are looking for more than weekly therapy. They want structured support, clear tools, and a shared way to grow together.
That’s where our Kindful Behaviors Program comes in.
If you have a child who struggles to make good choices, or you find yourself unsure how to best support them, this program offers a guided path forward, without shame or blame.
The Kindful Behaviors Program is a 10-week experience for both a child and caregiver, focused on helping children build the skills they need while strengthening connection at the same time.
Together, you’ll learn how to:
-
Understand the “why” behind behaviors
-
Build emotional awareness and regulation
-
Support more thoughtful, intentional choices
-
Respond in ways that feel calm, connected, and effective
The program is based on the co-owner’s award-finalist children’s book Our Choices, and includes a complimentary journal to support learning between sessions.
If you have more than one child or caregiver, we can tailor the experience to best support your family.
Because real change happens when kids and caregivers learn and practice together, not separately.

OUR APPROACH
We show up with curiosity, compassion, and respect—for every person’s experience.
Our work is:
-
Trauma-informed – we look beneath the surface, not just at behaviors
-
Neurodiversity-affirming – we honor differences, not try to “fix” them
-
Relationship-centered – because connection is where meaningful change happens
-
Practical and real-life focused – tools you can actually use outside of sessions
No judgment. No one-size-fits-all.
Just thoughtful, meaningful support
What Therapy Looks Like
Starting therapy doesn’t have to feel complicated.
Here’s what to expect:
1. Initial Consultation
We begin with a conversation to understand what’s going on and what you’re hoping for. We then connect you with a therapist that feels like the best fit for your needs. We will also send you your intake documents to fill out prior to your first session.
2. Getting to Know You
We take time to understand your experiences, patterns, and strengths.
3. Ongoing Support
We work together to build insight, develop skills, and create meaningful change—at a pace that feels right for you.
A Different Kind of Therapy Experience
At Kindful Place, we believe:
-
Behavior is communication
-
Emotions deserve understanding, not pressure
-
Relationships can heal with the right support
-
You don’t have to do this perfectly
This is a space where things start to make sense.
Where you can exhale.
Where change feels possible.
