Counseling for everyday people, like yourself

Life is messy, relationships are complicated, unexpected changes throw you off-course.  Therapists at Living Well see you as an individual, not a diagnosis.  You will benefit from trauma-informed therapy in a safe, comfortable environment.  You will leave educated and empowered.  You will be supported, heard, and encouraged to grow into the person God created you to be.

From confusion to clarity

Is your relationship confusing, chaotic, or crushing your spirit? The term ‘narcissism’ is overused in pop psychology and the label for what you may be experiencing is not as important as forging a healthier path forward.Being heard and understood is the first step out of the fog.
With deep care and expertise, Lisa guides clients through the process of understanding the difference between a difficult season and a destructive relationship. Through biblical truths and practical strategies, she empowers you to reclaim your strength, find clarity, and build a future rooted in God’s love and purpose.

Coparenting Chaos

Antagonist coparents are full of manipulative tactics to undermine and overpower you, often at the expense of your child’s emotional health. Subtle, bullying behaviors—such as financial intimidation, schedule sabotage, or relentless unsolicited judgment critiquing your parenting in a superior tone—can foster confusion, isolation, and helplessness.
Lisa provides targeted, faith-based individual support as you face  challenges with your coparent, equipping you with tools to counter coercive tactics and rebuild confidence. Drawing on her expertise in coercive control dynamics, biblical principals, and the Nurtured Heart Approach, she offers practical strategies to establish clear boundaries, maintain focus, and prioritize the child’s well-being, empowering you to create a stable, healthy environment despite obstacles.

Couples Counseling

Kathy offers faith-based couples counseling that integrates biblical principles with evidence-based therapeutic techniques to strengthen marriages. Her approach emphasizes love, forgiveness, and commitment, using prayer, scripture, and spiritual growth to guide couples through challenges like communication breakdowns, conflict, or infidelity. With a compassionate and practical style, Kathy helps couples deepen their spiritual and emotional connection, fostering resilience and a renewed sense of purpose in their relationship. Her services, available in-person or online, respect each couple’s faith journey, while promoting lasting relational growth.

She guides parents to walk alongside her in mastering this powerful approach, fostering their child’s inner wealth, resilience, and self-worth while strengthening family connections.

EMDR

Danika, Kathy, and Lisa offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). It is a specific type of psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.  Repeated studies show that by using EMDR therapy people can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference.

Welcome to the Living Well Team, Danika!

Danika specializes in walking alongside individuals who have experienced traumas throughout their lifetime. Her faith guides her work while treatments like EMDR allow clients to feel full resolution of their issues/concerns. She helps people process through deep-rooted trauma and guide clients to see their true potential and strength. Danika has years of experience providing outpatient therapy to youth in foster care/adoption, helping divert youth from the juvenile system, help children work through school stress, and walk alongside those in domestic violence relationships.

Client experiencing divorce

Thank you, Lisa! I am in awe of your profound understanding of these things, the way in which you both lovingly and warmly work through it with her- and ever so cleverly get her to open her eyes (and heart) - then help lead and guide her to a fun, feel-good story/situation. We are so beyond blessed to have the level of knowledge, training, expertise, and phenomenal skill level - that we have working with our daughter.

Parent of a child experiencing social anxiety

Our daughter loves Julie. She has walked through important life changes with Julie as a voice of truth and encouragement beside her.

Parent of Young Adult Client

Julie is warm and welcoming, I always feel right at home when I walk in the office. I am challenged each session and encouraged by Julie's grace and kindness. She truly is an amazing person inside and out and very relatable. I look forward to having her walk alongside me in my journey to healing.

From a professional working mom working through anxiety and depression.

I’ve known EMDR works as I’ve seen it in the lives of those I love but to experience it firsthand was fascinating. The significant anxiety I would normally feel over a specific trigger could be managed and I could walk myself back more effectively. The anxiety has lost so much power which is a gift.
