Gaia Counseling

Therapy for adults, adolescents, children, couples and families. Welcome! At Gaia, we understand some of the challenges of growing up and adulting.

We believe all adults, children and teenagers benefit from having a safe place to feel and process their emotions without bias or judgement. Some get this through relationships with friends, teachers, aunts, siblings or clergy. Some need more support through a trained individual like a therapist. We provide a warm, genuine, collaborative approach so that individuals can feel comfortable and safe. Our page provides articles and insights that we find interesting and hopefully others will also. Please feel free to take a look at our website if you would like more information regarding our services.

In this free, in person therapeutic workshop, we invite you to explore the stories about fatherhood that have shaped you and co-create new ones—ones that fit who you are and the kind of dad you want to be.

Through writing, discussion, and playful activities, fathers will have the opportunity to examine the way they see themselves as men, caregivers, and role models and walk away with new insights, a deeper sense of your identity, and stories you actually want to live into.
