Clayton Counseling
Counseling for children, adolescents, adults, and couples.
Have you been feeling stuck and unable to break free from the cycle? Maybe you keep trying ways of doing things that do not seem to be working anymore. Sometimes you can feel trapped in your own head and need a new perspective. Feeling lost on what to do to make things better?
Therapy can help you tap into your subconscious thoughts and guide you toward your intuition and best self. We operate from the mindset that deep down you often know what you want, but maybe listen to external beliefs as if they are your own thoughts.
​
I know reaching out for the first time is overwhelming, but you deserve to have peace and the live you always dreamed about. Stop letting it control you and begin something new.

What You Can Expect
Child Therapy
Children don ’t always have the words to communicate how they are feeling. Our therapists are trained in using play, art, animals, and activities to allow them space to communicate and learn new ways to handle emotions. Counseling services can be provided both in your home as well as in one of our offices. Sunny and Lauren specialize in children and adolescents.
Family Therapy
Sometimes there is not one clear problem or one key person who needs help. The family unit can be out of alignment and having an external person bring new perspective can make all the difference. Family therapy always starts with an assessment and builds from there.
Psychotherapy
Adults and adolescents participate in more typical talk therapy or psychotherapy using a variety of interventions tailored to presenting issues. Adolescent and adult therapy take place either on zoom or in one of our offices.
Couples Counseling
I believe that most conflict stems from a breakdown in communication. Good news: that is solvable! I start with a couples assessment and use the Gottman method.
Supervision
I am certified professional counselor supervisor and provide supervision towards LPC. I specialize in LPCs that work in school systems.
Psychological/Psychoeducational Evaluations
Psychological evaluations are 4-6 hours of tests that assess IQ, ADHD, educational challenges, and a variety of mental health concerns. Evaluations are typically used for court, school, or custody situations, but can also be requested by your medical provider in order to received medication.
EMDR
Certified Mental Health Counselor
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a therapeutic technique for reprocessing traumatic memories and desensitizing emotional reactions to various stimuli. It involves moving your eyes in a rhythmic fashion or using electronic tappers to stimulate the nervous system. trial investigating EMDR was in 1989. Dozens of clinical trials since EMDR’s development show this technique is effective and can help a person faster.

Need help, but do not have a lot of time? It can be done in an intensive format by having several therapy sessions back to back with small breaks in between for relaxation, yoga, or nature bathing.
