Now accepting Blue Cross Blue Shield Community (Medicaid) Is the person in the mirror becoming a stranger? It is normal for work, finances, relationships, love, friendships, family, loss, and/or health to generate intense feelings of emotional distress. You are not alone. You are not going crazy. Our motto is this: We will meet you where you are and take you where you want to be. There is hope. You can be YOU again. Getting out of bed can feel good again. When you need to look at something painful, a safe space is waiting for you with empathy and compassion.
Our style is open, affirming and empowering. While psychotherapy and coaching are not easy, it can be highly beneficial for most people. Living in Empathy clients consistently report positive outcomes like a greater sense of well-being, improved mood, increased self-worth, satisfaction in relationships, and deepened personal insight.
We at Living in Empathy hold many titles. We are solo mothers, sisters, partners, friends and/or daughters. We go to therapy as therapists. We are survivors of burnout and career stress. We work passionately to empower and heal, all the while helping clients consciously create the best version of themselves. **See the therapy team photos below**
