Individual Therapy
Empowering Your Individual Therapy Journey
Embarking on the path of personal growth and healing is a courageous step towards a brighter future. At Solid Foundations Therapy, we understand that life’s challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving you feeling lost, anxious, or stuck. Our individual therapy services provide a safe, supportive space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and to develop the skills and strategies you need to thrive.
Managing Anxiety: Embracing Calm Amidst the Chaos
Living with anxiety can feel like you’re always bracing for something to go wrong. Racing thoughts, difficulty sleeping, physical tension, and an overwhelming sense of dread may follow you through your day. You might find it hard to focus, make decisions, or even enjoy the things you care about. Left unaddressed, anxiety can begin to shape your life in ways that limit your joy and well-being.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we take anxiety seriously—because we know how much it can affect your life. Whether your anxiety shows up as constant worry, panic attacks, social fears, or perfectionism, our experienced therapists can help you regain a sense of calm and control.
We use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices to help you understand your anxiety and develop practical tools to manage it. You’ll learn how to quiet your inner critic, calm your nervous system, and respond to stress in healthier ways.
Most importantly, we create a space where you can be seen, heard, and understood—without pressure or shame. Together, we’ll work toward the version of life where your mind feels quieter and you’re able to show up fully for yourself, your relationships, and your goals.
Relief is possible—and we’re here to help you find it.
Managing Depression: Finding Light in the Darkness
Depression can quietly take hold, leaving you feeling numb, exhausted, or stuck in a fog that won’t lift. Even simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and the things that once brought you joy may no longer hold meaning. You might find yourself pulling away from others or feeling like you’re just going through the motions. When every day feels like a struggle, it’s easy to believe things will never get better.
But you don’t have to face it alone.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we help clients navigate depression with compassion, curiosity, and proven strategies that work. We’ll meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you uncover what’s fueling your symptoms. Whether it’s a pattern of negative thinking, unresolved trauma, or simply feeling stuck, your therapist will walk beside you to explore what’s going on beneath the surface.
Together, we’ll build a personalized plan that aligns with your goals and needs. You’ll learn coping strategies that actually help, gain clarity around your triggers, and begin to rebuild your connection to yourself and the world around you. Our goal is to help you find moments of light again—no matter how small they may feel at first.
You deserve to feel like yourself again. And with the right support, you can get there.
Heal from the Past: Individual Therapy for Trauma Recovery
If you’ve experienced a painful or overwhelming event—whether recent or long ago—you may be carrying around invisible wounds that are affecting how you feel, think, and engage with the world. Trauma doesn’t always come from one major event. Sometimes it builds slowly, through repeated stress, emotional neglect, or ongoing difficult relationships. Trauma often lingers long after the event has passed. It can show up in both obvious and subtle ways.
Living with unresolved trauma can impact nearly every area of your life. You might notice yourself becoming more reactive in relationships, avoiding situations or people, feeling disconnected from loved ones, struggling to focus at work or in other areas of life, or losing interest in activities you once enjoyed. It can be exhausting to carry the weight of the past while trying to function in the present. You may feel like you're in survival mode all the time, just trying to get through the day without falling apart.
No matter how it started, the impact is real—and you don’t have to face it alone. Therapy can help you break that cycle. We offer results driven trauma-informed care that helps you reconnect with your sense of safety, stability, and control— finding recovery one step at a time.
Motherhood: Finding Balance, Strength, and Joy
Whether you’re expecting a child, caring for a newborn, or parenting older kids, motherhood is rewarding—but also incredibly demanding. From the outside, it may look like you’re managing it all. But inside, you might feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or emotionally stretched thin.
Today’s moms are expected to do everything: raise healthy kids, keep the household running, manage careers, maintain relationships, and somehow prioritize self-care. The mental load is constant, and guilt often follows no matter how much you give.
You may be struggling with anxiety, mood swings, irritability, or emotional burnout. Sleep issues, low motivation, or a sense of losing your identity are also common. New moms might experience postpartum depression or anxiety. If you’ve been a mom for a while, the challenges don’t necessarily get easier—they just change . It's easy to feel like you’re falling short—even when you're doing your best.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we recognize the invisible weight of motherhood. Our therapists provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your emotions, regain your balance, learn new skills, and reconnect with yourself. We’ll work with you to manage stress, set healthy boundaries, and identify what you need to thrive as a mom—not just survive.
Therapy can help you feel more grounded, confident, and supported through every stage of motherhood. Whether you’re navigating the early days, adjusting to major transitions, or trying to find a better rhythm for your family and your own needs—we’re here to help.
You don’t have to carry the weight of motherhood alone. Let’s work together to reclaim your voice, your peace of mind, and your sense of self.
Low Self-Esteem: Building Confidence from Within
When you struggle with low self-esteem, it’s like carrying a quiet voice inside that constantly tells you you’re not enough. You may compare yourself to others, second-guess your decisions, or shy away from opportunities because you doubt your worth. Over time, this inner narrative can affect your relationships, your career, and your sense of fulfillment.
But the truth is, confidence isn’t something you’re born with or without—it’s something that can be built.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we help clients untangle the roots of their low self-esteem and replace self-doubt with self-acceptance. We’ll explore where those critical beliefs came from—whether past relationships, family dynamics, trauma, or societal pressures—and begin to rewrite the story you tell yourself.
Using compassionate, evidence-based techniques, your therapist will guide you through the process of challenging negative self-talk, developing a stronger sense of self, and learning to speak to yourself with kindness. You’ll also learn tools to set healthy boundaries, communicate assertively, and take up space in your own life without apology.
You don’t have to stay stuck in self-doubt. Together, we can help you rediscover your strengths and embrace your worth—just as you are.
Stress Management: Finding Balance in a Busy World
Stress is a part of life—but when it becomes constant, it can take a serious toll on your mental, emotional, and physical health. You may feel overwhelmed, irritable, forgetful, or physically exhausted. The demands of work, family, and daily responsibilities pile up until you’re stretched too thin, and it feels like there’s never enough time or space for yourself.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we understand how quickly unmanaged stress can turn into burnout. We work with you to identify what’s causing your stress, how it’s showing up in your life, and—most importantly—how to manage it in a sustainable, realistic way.
Your therapist will guide you in setting boundaries, prioritizing your needs, and building in practices that help you slow down and recalibrate. You’ll learn practical tools like relaxation techniques, time management strategies, and ways to calm your nervous system when you’re feeling triggered.
Stress is often a sign that something is out of alignment. Whether it’s taking on too much, struggling to say “no,” or losing sight of what fills your cup, therapy can help you shift from survival mode to a more balanced, fulfilling rhythm.
You don’t have to carry it all. We’re here to help you create more ease, intention, and peace in your everyday life.
Life Transitions: Navigating Change with Confidence
Change—whether chosen or unexpected—can be both exciting and unsettling. Starting a new job, ending a relationship, becoming a parent, relocating, retiring, or facing an empty nest are all significant life transitions. Even positive changes can stir up anxiety, grief, or self-doubt as you navigate the unknown.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we specialize in helping clients move through life’s transitions with clarity and confidence. We know that these turning points often come with a flood of emotions—uncertainty, fear, excitement, loss—and it can be difficult to process them all on your own.
In therapy, we create a space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and choices without pressure or judgment. Whether you’re struggling to let go of the past, define your next chapter, or simply keep your footing during change, we’ll help you find your way forward.
Together, we’ll clarify what matters most to you, identify areas where you feel stuck, and develop tools to manage stress, build resilience, and embrace new possibilities. Change can be hard—but it also holds the potential for profound growth.
You don’t have to navigate transitions alone. Let us help you turn uncertainty into opportunity.
Family Problems: Strengthening Relationships and Resolving Conflict
Family can be a powerful source of love and support—but it can also be a source of stress, tension, and pain. Miscommunication, unresolved resentments, and unmet expectations can quickly lead to recurring arguments and emotional distance. Whether you're struggling with parenting disagreements, sibling rivalry, intergenerational conflict, or difficulty navigating life under the same roof, family issues can affect everyone’s well-being.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we provide a safe, neutral space where each member of your family can feel heard and understood. We approach every family system with compassion and curiosity, helping you identify the core issues beneath the surface-level conflicts. Our therapists are skilled at working with families of all shapes, sizes, and structures—and we know how to support meaningful, lasting change.
Together, we’ll strengthen communication skills, set clearer boundaries, and rebuild trust where it’s been broken. You’ll also learn how to navigate different personalities and needs without falling into old patterns of blame, avoidance, or emotional shutdown.
Family therapy can help you shift from disconnection and frustration to greater empathy, teamwork, and stability at home. Even when change feels impossible, small, intentional steps can create powerful ripple effects in your relationships.
You don’t have to keep walking on eggshells or feeling stuck in the same loop. Let us help your family move forward—together.
Grief: Healing from Loss with Compassion and Understanding
Grief touches us all—but it rarely looks or feels the way we expect. One moment you may feel numb, and the next, overwhelmed by sadness, anger, guilt, or even relief. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, experienced a miscarriage, faced the end of a relationship, or are grieving a major life change, grief can affect every part of your life—your mood, your energy, your focus, your relationships.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we honor the deeply personal and nonlinear nature of grief. We understand that it’s not something you “get over”—it’s something you learn to live with. Our therapists create a gentle, supportive space where you can process your emotions at your own pace, without pressure to move on or be “okay.”
Together, we’ll explore the unique meaning of your loss and how it’s impacting you day to day. You’ll learn strategies to manage difficult emotions, make space for joy and sorrow to coexist, and rebuild your sense of purpose and connection over time.
Grief therapy isn’t about forgetting. It’s about integrating your loss in a way that allows you to carry it—and yourself—with compassion.
Whatever you’re grieving, you don’t have to face it alone. Healing is possible, and we’re here to walk alongside you through it.
Creating a Work-Life Balance: Prioritizing Your Well-being
In today’s always-on world, finding a healthy work-life balance can feel like chasing a moving target. The lines between work, home, and personal time are often blurred—especially for those juggling careers, caregiving, and everything in between. It’s easy to end up feeling depleted, resentful, or like you’re constantly falling short in one area or another.
At Solid Foundations Therapy, we believe that balance is not about doing it all—it’s about doing what matters in a way that supports your mental and emotional health. If you feel like your life is being dictated by your calendar, or you’ve lost touch with your own needs in the hustle of daily responsibilities, we can help.
Your therapist will work with you to identify what’s working and what’s not, define your personal values and priorities, and establish boundaries that protect your time and energy. We’ll also help you challenge the unrealistic expectations or internal pressures that often drive imbalance in the first place.
Whether you’re overwhelmed by work demands, family obligations, or the mental load of trying to hold everything together, therapy can offer the clarity and tools you need to reclaim your time and your well-being.
You deserve a life that includes you in it. Let’s find a rhythm that works—on your terms.
