Here for You
At Birch Counseling, we offer therapy services grounded in empathy, safety, and deep respect for each person’s lived experience. Our practice is a supportive space for children, adolescents, and adults navigating trauma, grief and loss, shifting family dynamics, and LGBTQ+ identity and belonging.
We believe healing is not something you have to do alone. Therapy provides a powerful opportunity to be seen, heard, and understood—together, we’ll work to understand the past, find clarity in the present, and build a more grounded, empowered future.
Our experienced therapists create intentional, inclusive spaces where you can explore your story, build resilience, and experience meaningful change. Whether you're just beginning your journey or looking for continued support, you're welcome here.
Hello.
Our team is made up of dedicated therapists who each bring their own unique backgrounds, areas of focus, and therapeutic styles to the work. What unites us is a shared commitment to honoring the wisdom and autonomy of our clients, recognizing the impact of systemic injustice, and providing care that is both clinically sound and deeply human.
We believe that meaningful therapy begins with genuine connection and respect. Our providers approach each client with curiosity, humility, and the belief that you are the expert in your own life. As a team, we continually engage in learning and reflection to ensure our work remains responsive, inclusive, and grounded in integrity.

What Lights Us Up
Therapeutic Groups
We believe healing is amplified through connection. Our therapeutic groups offer a supportive space to share your experiences, access collective wisdom, and build resilience alongside others who understand.
Group therapy can be a powerful way to feel less alone, learn from different perspectives, and grow in a safe, guided environment. Together, we create space for mutual support, healing, and transformation.
We currently offer Chronic Illness Support Groups and Art-Based Groups, and we are continually introducing and developing new programs to meet the evolving needs of our community.
Creative Therapies
We believe healing is not one-size-fits-all. It can emerge through words—but also through movement, art, play, imagination, and connection with the natural world.
Our therapists thoughtfully integrate creative and experiential approaches into their work, offering clients diverse ways to explore, express, and heal.
Whether through art-making, guided imagery, nature-based practices, or playful exploration, we honor the many ways people access insight, resilience, and transformation.
LGBTQIA+ Support
We are an affirming practice for LGBTQIA+ children, adolescents, and adults. Here, your identity is seen, valued, and celebrated. Whether you're exploring your sense of self, navigating relationships, or processing the impact of societal and familial dynamics, we're here to support you with compassion and respect.
Our therapists create a space where you can show up fully—without judgment and without needing to explain who you are. We honor your authenticity while walking alongside you as you deepen your connection to yourself, your community, and the world around you.
Therapy Intensives
Therapy Intensives offer a powerful opportunity to make significant progress in a shorter amount of time. Our intensives focus on addressing the root causes of distress—often unresolved, negative past experiences.
Using evidence-based approaches like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), our Intensive Therapists help clients process trauma and other painful memories in a safe, supportive environment.
We offer intensives for children (ages 4 and up), adolescents, and adults. Each intensive is thoughtfully tailored to meet your unique needs and readiness for healing.
