ATHENA’S HEALING HAVEN - WHERE HEALING IS AT YOUR PACE
Our Services Via Telehealth
-
Individual therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of patterns shaped by trauma, chronic stress, and lived experience. Many individuals seek therapy feeling disconnected from themselves, stuck in survival mode, or overwhelmed by emotional or relational challenges. In this space, we work toward greater self-understanding, emotional regulation, and clarity, supporting growth that feels grounded, compassionate, and sustainable.
-
Couples therapy supports partners who feel stuck in cycles of conflict, distance, or mistrust, including the impact of infidelity and betrayal. Often, these experiences disrupt emotional safety and communication, leaving both partners feeling hurt, guarded, or unsure how to move forward. Therapy offers a structured, supportive space to process betrayal, rebuild trust, strengthen communication, and explore relational patterns with care, accountability, and compassion.
-
Family therapy focuses on improving communication, understanding roles and patterns, and strengthening relationships within the family system. Families may seek support during periods of transition, conflict, or emotional strain. Therapy offers a space to explore how individual experiences and stressors impact the family as a whole, fostering healthier interaction, clearer boundaries, and more supportive connections.
