Services
At Anchored Counseling and Wellness, we provide services for ages 12-100 and work with clients in all stages of life. We provide individual counseling, family counseling, and couples counseling. At times we may also offer group services.
Individual Counseling
Counseling is a collaborative process between therapist and client that aims to facilitate change and improve quality of life. Therapy can help people confront barriers that interfere with emotional and mental well-being, and it can also increase positive feelings such as compassion, self-esteem, love, courage, and peace. The goal of counseling is to learn new skills and ways of thinking to reduce uncomfortable symptoms. Many people find they enjoy the therapeutic journey of becoming more self-aware, and they may pursue ongoing counseling as a means of self-growth.
Couples Counseling
The purpose of couples therapy is to restore a better level of functioning in couples who experience relationship distress. The reasons for distress can include poor communication skills, incompatibility, or a broad spectrum of psychological disorders. The focus of couples therapy is to identify the presence of dissatisfaction and distress in the relationship, and to devise and implement a treatment plan with objectives designed to improve or alleviate the presenting symptoms and restore the relationship to a better and healthier level of functioning.

As a Counselor, We Do Not:
We do not prescribe medication
As counselors, our role is to assist you in exploring your personal history, your current symptoms, and your goals. We facilitate personal growth and improved wellness through teaching new skills, identifying maladaptive habits and thinking patterns and establishing a concrete plan for change.
While we cannot prescribe medication, we will refer you to an appropriate specialist or work with your current primary care physician to coordinate care.
We do not make decisions for you
You are the expert in your own life. All changes and decisions will be made by you. As counselors, we will guide, motivate, encourage, educate, and inform. But each and every decision about your life must be made by you.
We do not judge
We are non-judgmental and Anchored Counseling and Wellness is a safe place for your to be exactly who you are. You can express your fears, feelings, hopes and dreams.without fear of judgement.
We do not release your personal information or tell anyone you came for counseling
In short, your privacy is protected by HIPPA which ensures that we cannot release any information about you, including that you came for counseling, without your written consent to do so. Your privacy is important to us and we do not share our space with any other medical providers or professionals.
