Individual counseling is a safe and supportive space for you to explore your feelings, thoughts, and life experiences so you can understand yourself better. You are encouraged to bring any concerns or questions that may be weighing on your mind. You will be given tools to address present or past difficulties, including depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues.

We can work together to align your body and mind so you can develop a deeper understanding of yourself and gain clarity about how you’d like to show up in the world.
Individual counseling can help you:
Manage depression and anxiety symptoms
Working with a therapist doing individual counseling sessions can help you to understand the underlying causes of your depression and develop effective coping mechanisms to manage your symptoms. You’ll start by creating healthy self-care practices to boost your mood and improve your overall well-being.
Then you’ll begin working to identify the emotions you’re experiencing and the sensations in your body that accompany those feelings. You’ll identify negative thought patterns and beliefs contributing to your depression and start replacing them with more positive and empowering ways of thinking.
Develop Stress and Trauma Coping Strategies
Chronic stress and past traumas can negatively impact your mental health and make managing everyday life difficult. Renaissance Somatic Counseling’s trauma-informed counseling includes somatic techniques that don’t require you to retell the traumatic events.
A body-based approach can help you develop effective coping strategies to manage your symptoms. Robin will also help you to incorporate resilience-building practices into your life to help improve your overall well-being.
Set and Maintain Healthy Boundaries
Healthy boundaries are essential for maintaining healthy relationships and reducing stress and frustration. Boundaries that are too rigid or too porous can make it hard to have healthy and fulfilling connections with others.
At Renaissance Somatic Counseling, Robin Dunn Bryant specializes in helping individuals understand and overcome the root causes of boundary issues. She will work with you through individual counseling sessions to establish healthy boundaries and effectively communicate your personal needs and values.
Improve Communication Skills
Effective communication is key to maintaining healthy relationships, but it can be difficult for many individuals. Robin Dunn Bryant is experienced in helping clients develop communication skills and learn how to express their needs.
Through individual counseling, she will work with you to identify patterns of behavior that prevent you from communicating effectively and develop new strategies for expressing yourself.
Build stronger, more fulfilling relationships
There are several vital components of stronger, more fulfilling relationships. You and Robin will work together to define a healthy relationship, understand your relationship “must haves,” and identify patterns of behavior that may be causing conflict. You will use that knowledge to develop more effective ways of recognizing healthy connections and showing up in them in ways that will maintain them.
