Why Choose Maplewood Counseling?
Personalized and Specialized Care for Couples, Individuals, & Families
Find Healing and Connection with a Practice That Puts You First
Making the decision to seek therapy is a significant step, and finding the right therapist is just as important. In a world with countless options, from large online platforms to local clinics, it can be hard to know which choice will truly meet your needs. You may be wondering: Will I just be another number? Will my therapist really understand the complexities of my relationship? Will this actually work?
At Maplewood Counseling, we understand these concerns. We offer a different kind of experience—one that is built on a foundation of genuine connection, deep expertise, and personalized care. We are a boutique practice dedicated to helping you navigate your challenges in a space where you feel seen, heard, and valued from your very first session.
The Maplewood Difference: More Than Just Therapy
Choosing a therapist is a personal decision. Unlike large, impersonal platforms where you might be matched with a different provider each time, our practice is built on the power of the therapeutic relationship. We believe lasting change happens when you work with a dedicated professional who knows your story and is invested in your growth.
Here is what sets us apart:
A Small, Highly Trained Team
You will work with a consistent, senior-level therapist from our close-knit team. This continuity of care is essential for building the trust needed for deep, effective work. Our therapists are not just licensed; they are seasoned specialists with advanced training in couples, family, and individual therapy, including evidence-based methods like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
Deep Specialization in Relationships
While many practices offer general counseling, our heart lies in helping people build stronger connections. We specialize in the intricate dynamics of relationships and families. This means we have dedicated expertise in navigating complex issues such as:
- High-conflict cycles and communication breakdowns
- Infidelity recovery and rebuilding trust
- Blended family and co-parenting challenges
- Intercultural and LGBTQ+ relationship dynamics
- Navigating life transitions as a team
Integrated Care for the Whole Person
Relationship issues rarely exist in a vacuum. Often, challenges like anxiety, depression, or past trauma are intertwined with the health of your partnership or family. We provide integrated care that addresses both. Your therapist can help you as a couple while also supporting individual members in managing personal struggles, ensuring a holistic path to wellness for everyone involved.
A Personalized, Non-Rushed Experience
We believe therapy should never feel like a transaction. Your sessions are a confidential, protected time for you. Our personalized approach means we move at your pace, giving you the space to explore your feelings and experiences without being rushed. We take the time to understand your unique situation and tailor our methods to your specific goals, ensuring the work we do together is meaningful and effective. For those seeking deeper work, we also offer longer, intensive sessions to help you make significant progress.
