Individual Counseling

Therapy That Meets You Where You Are

...and Helps You Get Where You Want to Be!

You’ve built a life that looks good on paper, but lately, it feels like you’re running on fumes.
You might be showing up for everyone else, holding it together at work, and managing all the things — but inside, you’re just tired.

Individual counseling at Outside Therapy is your space to stop running, breathe for a moment, and focus on you.
No judgment. No jargon. Just support that helps you feel grounded, capable, and like yourself again.

What Brings People Here

You don’t need to have a crisis to start therapy. Most of our clients come in simply because they want to feel better — to be more patient with their kids, more confident in relationships, or more present in daily life.

Common reasons people begin individual counseling include:

  • Stress, burnout, or emotional exhaustion

  • Anxiety, overthinking, or restlessness

  • Difficulty managing anger or frustration

  • Feeling “flat,” unmotivated, or disconnected

  • Grief and loss

  • Major life transitions (career, relationships, identity)

  • Trouble sleeping or relaxing — even when you’re off the clock

If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place.

What Makes Our Approach Different

At Outside Therapy, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment.
We take a whole-person approach — addressing both the mind and the body, because your mental health doesn’t exist in isolation.

We blend Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with practical tools from CBT, DBT, and Positive Psychology to help you gain insight and take action.

That means your sessions won’t just be about talking — they’ll be about learning how to live differently.

What this looks like in practice:

  • Learning how to calm racing thoughts and regulate your body’s stress response

  • Building better communication and boundaries that protect your peace

  • Identifying what actually matters to you and aligning your choices accordingly

  • Making space for rest, meaning, and real connection

Your therapist becomes your guide — helping you navigate your patterns, find clarity, and develop tools that work in real life.

The Process of Change

The first few weeks of therapy focus on understanding what’s happening right now — how you think, feel, and respond under pressure.
Then, as trust builds, the work shifts toward creating and practicing new tools.

Over time, most clients start to notice:

  • Feeling calmer and more in control

  • Less tension and overthinking

  • Better sleep and emotional balance

  • Stronger confidence and focus

  • More ease in daily interactions

Therapy doesn’t erase challenges — it makes you stronger, steadier, and better equipped to handle them.

Why Outside Therapy

Our work doesn’t stop at the office door. We believe mental wellness includes sleep, nutrition, movement, and connection — all the factors that shape your ability to function and feel fulfilled.

That’s why our team partners with local wellness providers, outdoor programs, and nutrition services to support whole-person healing.

When you take care of the full picture, progress becomes permanent.
