Soma Counseling and Wellness provides counseling for depression to give you mind and body wellness.

A Holistic Approach

Start Counseling for Depression

Depression can cast a shadow over every aspect of one’s life, making it difficult to find joy, a sense of purpose, and disrupt our connection with others. We understand that depression is a complex condition that affects not just your mind, but your entire being resulting in a variety of physical symptoms and a shift in how we feel in our bodies overall. Everything from thought patterns to lifestyle factors also play a role in understanding depression. That is why Soma Counseling and Wellness offers a holistic approach to treatment for depression - an approach that considers the whole person, addressing the emotional, social, and physical aspects of your wellbeing.

Integrative Approach Towards Wellness​

​

Our goal is to help clients develop coping resources, increase mindfulness and cultivate resilience. Using techniques such as meditation, breath-work and somatics, a plan of care will be developed based on the individual’s goals and needs. Yoga can be its own offering within our scope of services or be used as a treatment alongside psychotherapy.

  • What is Couples Therapy and How does it work?
    As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Level 2 Gottman trained practitioner, Michelle provides specialized support to help couples strengthen their relationships and resolve conflicts. The Gottman Method is a research based approach to couples therapy and focuses on enhancing three essential areas: building friendships and intimacy, managing conflict constructively, and creating shared meaning and purpose in the relationship. Therapy will consider how factors such as family of origin dynamics (the framework you grew up in), past experiences, trauma, and external stressors affect the relationship. By understanding these influences, couples will discuss how they shape their interactions and work together to create healthier patterns that support both partners’ needs. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement progress. This will allow me to get to know each individual better, assess each of your personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward. Whether you are married or dating and struggling with communication issues, feeling stuck in conflict, emotional disconnection, or major life changes, my approach combines interventions from a holistic view of your relationship, helping you grow and build a healthy relationship TOGETHER.
  • How long does couples counseling last?
    The duration is dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress. I recommend that couples commit to a minimum of 6 consecutive sessions to get started.
  • How can couples counseling with Soma Counseling and wellness help you?
