Our Vision
At North Star Counseling and Wellness, there are 3 pillars that guide the work and services that we offer.
First, the stars are an analogy we use to describe the expansive possibilities of the human brain. We don’t just want to treat a symptom and send you on your way. We believe the brain is capable of so much more than that. We approach all things with an expansion mindset helping you experience and reach possibilities you never thought was possible before.
Second, we treat both the mind and the body. By taking an integrated approach, we are able to remove blocks through creating movement in your nervous system, helping you find relief, high performance, create better habits, and reach your goals.
Third, we put training clinicians as a top priority. When working with any of our clinicians, you'll be working with someone who is continuously learning the most-up-to-date and effective models.
Author of the Body Keeps Score, Bessel Van de Kolk, teaches that the most effective forms of therapy include, but are not limited to:
- Various forms of trauma processing (Brainspotting, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and more). With a focus on somatic bottom-up approaches.
- Neurofeedback and biofeedback (SSP and Heartmath)
- Theater
- Meditation/Mindfulness
- Rhythm, movement, play, and Yoga
- Animal therapy
We strive to offer all of these services. Healing is not just a one type fits all.
What to Expect
The first step is to schedule a complimentary 15 minute consultation to discuss what services may be the best fit for you.
The second step is to schedule a 90 minute assessment/initial session. At this session you will:
- Establish goals that we can keep track of progress.
- Start developing a therapeutic relationship with your clinician.
- Receive recommendations and education on other services that will help you reach your goals as quickly as possible.
- Receive recommendations on frequency and timing of sessions, and will start the process towards change.
We are looking for people who are ready to make change happen in their lives.
