You’ve tried to push through it—but it’s not working
The same thoughts, feelings, or patterns keep coming back—no matter what you do.

You might feel stuck in your own head, constantly overthinking or worrying.
Or disconnected—going through the motions but not really feeling much.
Maybe you’ve tried to ignore it, stay busy, or figure it out on your own—but nothing seems to actually fix it.
That’s not because you’re broken. It’s because the patterns driving it haven’t been fully understood or changed yet.
You’re not the only one this happens to—and it’s more fixable than you think.

This is exactly what we help you do.

Therapy that fits your life

Therapy shouldn’t add more stress to your day. Virtual sessions make it easier to show up consistently, stay comfortable, and focus on what actually matters—making progress. Clients prefer virtual once they try it.

What we help with

You don’t need to fit into a category—you just need help with what you’re going through. Here are some of the most common things we help people work through:

illustrated icon representing anxiety

Anxiety & Overthinking

You feel stuck in your own head—constantly thinking, worrying, or replaying things. It’s hard to relax, even when nothing is wrong.

illustrated icon representing trauma

Trauma & Emotional Triggers (EMDR Certified)

Past experiences still show up in the present—through anxiety, stress, or reactions that don’t fully make sense.

Feeling Down or Alone

You feel low, disconnected, or alone—even when you’re around others. It’s hard to feel motivated, and things that used to matter don’t feel the same anymore.

Feeling Disconnected or Numb

You’re going through the motions, but not really feeling much. Things that used to matter don’t feel the same anymore.

illustrated icon representing cultural and identity support

Repeating Patterns

You find yourself stuck in the same thoughts, reactions, or situations—even when you try to change them.

Relationships & Communication

You struggle to feel understood, heard, or connected—whether in relationships, family, or everyday interactions.

If one of these sounds like you, we can help you work through it.

What makes this different

Most people don’t need more advice—they need to understand what’s actually going on and how to change it. That’s what we focus on.

You learn tools you can actually use

Each session gives you something practical you can apply in your real life—so you’re not just thinking about change, you’re actually making it.

Things finally start to click

Instead of repeating the same patterns, you begin to see them clearly—and learn how to change them in a way that actually lasts.

Our approach is grounded in proven methods like CBT, EMDR, and trauma-informed care.

Testimonials

You don’t have to take our word for it.

  • Dr. Saelee has been so helpful in my therapy journey! Her style working through EMDR and somatic techniques has been really impactful. I really appreciate her asking guiding and validating questions that help me better understand how and why I'm feeling what I feel.

    I was fortunate to meet Dr. T during a very challenging time in my life. Our sessions were dynamic and thoughtfully tailored to meet me where I was at each stage of my journey. She was deeply mindful of every aspect of my being, including my lived experience, background, and how these intersected with both my mind and body. She provided me with the right tools at the right moments and took the time to truly get to know me, which ultimately helped me gain a deeper understanding of myself.

    I had a great experience working with my therapist. She helped me work through a difficult period of grief. I would highly recommend her. She was very caring and asked me very thoughtful questions.

  • Charity was thoughtful, personable, and really allowed me to do the work myself. She was always there to guide me (or call me out when necessary) but it was at my pace and always with my well being in mind. A great experience overall and I highly recommend Avid.

    I highly recommend the folks at avid counseling. My counselor at Avid has taught me more skills for managing my emotions then all other previous counselors I've had combined. The skills I have learned help me identify triggers and deal with them in a healthy way. I am better now at managing my anxiety than ever before and learning to communicate and manage my anger as well. These folks are amazing.

  • Been with Dr Thaen for about 3 months and it’s been a great blessing to have found her during this time in my life. Typically I hear a lot a stories about how therapists do not listen and don’t give you tools to work with during crisis. That wasn’t the case with Dr Thaen. I could talk for 30 mins and she heard every word I said. Gives me her input and tools to use to combat my crisis and it works. I’ve shared some of her tools with friends and it even worked for them. What ever you may be going through, I’m sure Dr Thaen can help. If not, I’m sure she can lead you in the right direction. Don’t miss this opportunity for guidance and effective tools to better your circumstance.

    I have to be honest, I have always kind of felt like if you need marriage counseling, your marriage is probably over anyway... All that said, if you are reading this and considering getting counseling, I would suggest to definitely try it. Our marriage went through the roughest year nearly imaginable. We decided to give marriage counseling a try to see if we could work things out as a last ditch effort. Jason, our therapist, helped us get past so many issues and see things much more clearly. If you are still reading this far, make the appointment. It's worth a shot to see if he can help you as well. Thanks Jason.
