Individual, Group, and Couples Counseling

Retreats

Individual

There is a way to uncover the gold that is the truth of who you are. We do that by meeting and making friends with all the parts of you who are doing their best to keep you safe and loved. This is IFS (Internal Family Systems) Therapy. As you become grounded in confidence, compassion, and courage, your connections will strengthen and ease will return.

We can explore lots of ways for you to relax into therapy, from walking and talking on woodland paths to making art collages, journaling, and expressing through movement.

We can also draw from a number of useful modalities for trauma healing. And we’ll focus on recognizing and building on your natural strengths.

I work with adults who are interested in living full and fulfilling lives and who are ready to do the work of loving themselves whole-heartedly.

Prudence also offers week-long retreats at various locations. Please click here for more information.

Couples

What we’ll do in couples counseling:

  • discover the parts that are active in the relationship

  • get curious about the needs and desires of those parts in yourself and your partner

  • learn the deepest hopes and fears these parts hold for yourself, your partner, and the relationship

  • slow things down so you can understand what’s really happening inside each of you

  • look at these underlying dynamics and how they play out day to day

  • learn to care for your wounded parts and better relate to your partner’s wounded parts, as well

  • begin having courageous conversations that increase the trust and safety between you

  • find the intimacy that comes from compassionate connection

Group

What you’ll experience in a group:

  • a new way of relating to others authentically

  • deep listening skills

  • mirroring others to let them know they’re seen and heard

  • the healing balm of belonging

  • a gradual relaxing into your authentic self

  • a safe place to experiment with welcoming in parts of yourself you’ve pushed aside

Groups at Inner Connections have a single entry point, so that everyone starts and ends together.  This promotes the safety that is so important for individual growth and group cohesion. Together, we create a well of wisdom and care that lasts well beyond the timeline of the group.

*Note: Next group scheduled to begin in January, 2025. If you are interested, please schedule a free consultation so we can be sure the group is a good fit for you.
