Sessions for Individuals
Individual Therapy
Because sometimes the person getting on your nerves the most… is you.
Maybe you keep overthinking things, replaying conversations, or reacting in ways you promised yourself you wouldn’t anymore. Maybe you know better, but in the moment, your body and emotions take over anyway. That can be frustrating, confusing, and honestly exhausting.
Individual therapy is a place to slow all of that down.
This isn’t about judging yourself or trying harder to “fix” your reactions. It’s about understanding what’s actually happening beneath the surface, why certain patterns keep showing up, what your nervous system is doing under stress, and how past experiences may still be shaping the present.
Our work is collaborative and paced. We focus on what’s getting in your way and what helps you feel steadier, clearer, and more like yourself again. Sometimes that means unpacking old experiences. Other times it’s about practicing new ways of responding in real time,especially when you catch yourself thinking, “Why do I always do this?”
Individual therapy can help with:
Feeling less stuck in your own head
Understanding and softening self-criticism
Breaking patterns that keep repeating
Processing stress, anxiety, or past experiences
Feeling more grounded in daily life and relationships
Sessions are active, supportive, and focused on real change, not just insight. We pay attention to both your thoughts and what’s happening in your body, because understanding alone doesn’t always shift patterns. Feeling safer and more regulated does.
You don’t need to come in with a polished story or a clear plan. If you’re aware that something isn’t working, and you’re tired of being stuck in the same loop, that’s enough to start.

Our Approach to Individual Therapy
Trauma-Informed. Attachment-Rooted. Results-Focused.
Healing is not about “fixing” what is broken, it’s about helping your nervous system feel safe enough to change. At Grounded Growth Counseling, our approach to individual therapy is grounded in neuroscience, attachment theory, and evidence-based trauma treatment. We integrate EMDR, Brainspotting, and Solution-Focused Therapy, with strong influence from Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you create meaningful, lasting shifts.
We work with the whole person—mind, body, history, and hope—so therapy becomes not just a place to talk, but a place to truly transform.
EMDR: Reprocessing the Past So It No Longer Controls the Present
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, research-supported approach for healing trauma, anxiety, and distressing life experiences. Rather than simply talking about what happened, EMDR helps the brain reprocess how traumatic memories are stored so they lose their emotional charge.
Clients often experience:
Relief from intrusive memories and emotional overwhelm
Reduced anxiety, panic, and reactivity
Increased emotional clarity and resilience
A greater sense of empowerment and self-trust
EMDR allows you to move forward without having to relive the past endlessly.
Brainspotting: Accessing the Deepest Level of Healing
Brainspotting is a gentle yet powerful neuro-experiential therapy that works with the body and brain to release trauma held beneath conscious awareness. Using eye position to access stored experiences, Brainspotting helps bypass overthinking and support organic healing from the inside out.
This approach is especially effective for:
Developmental and complex trauma
Chronic anxiety or panic
Performance blocks and burnout
Somatic symptoms and emotional shutdown
You don’t have to “figure it all out” for your nervous system to heal.

IFS-Informed Therapy: Understanding the Parts of You With Compassion
Our work is deeply influenced by Internal Family Systems (IFS), which views the mind as made up of protective and wounded “parts”, all of which carry meaning and purpose. Instead of judging or forcing change, we help you build a compassionate relationship with the parts of you that hold pain, fear, shame, and protective strategies.
This allows for:
Reduced internal conflict and self-criticism
Healing of attachment wounds
Increased emotional regulation
A stronger, more grounded sense of Self
Nothing in you is “too much” or “too broken” to be understood.
