Counseling Services

At Metta Vibes, we provide trauma-informed counseling in a safe, compassionate environment where healing begins. Our licensed therapists specialize in supporting women, children, teens, and families as they navigate life's challenges and recover from past trauma.

Individual Counseling for Women

We understand the unique challenges women face when healing from emotional abuse, complex trauma, and life transitions. Our therapists create a judgment-free space where you can process your experiences, develop healthy coping skills, and rediscover your strength. Whether you're working through relationship trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, or rebuilding your sense of self, we walk alongside you every step of the way.

Child & Teen Counseling (Ages 8-17)

Young people deserve support tailored to their developmental needs. Our clinicians use age-appropriate, evidence-based approaches to help children and teens process difficult experiences, manage emotions, build resilience, and develop healthy relationships. We address trauma, behavioral challenges, anxiety, depression, grief, and family conflicts in ways that honor each young person's unique voice and journey.

Family Counseling

Trauma affects entire family systems. Our family counseling helps repair relationships, improve communication, and create healthier patterns of interaction. We work with families to understand each member's experience, rebuild trust, and develop the skills needed to support one another's healing and growth.

Our Approach

Every counseling journey at Metta Vibes is rooted in trauma-informed care, cultural sensitivity, and genuine compassion. We believe in your capacity for healing and transformation. We recognize your situation is unique. We work with you to create an individualized treatment plan to help you reach your goals.

Evidence-Based Treatment Modalities

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. Through structured, goal-oriented sessions, clients learn to:

  • Recognize the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
  • Challenge and reframe negative thinking patterns
  • Develop practical coping strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress
  • Build problem-solving skills for real-world challenges

Best for: Anxiety, depression, phobias, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, behavioral issues, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices to help clients regulate intense emotions and improve relationships. Our DBT-informed counseling focuses on four core skill areas:

  • Mindfulness: Staying present and aware without judgment
  • Distress Tolerance: Managing crises without making things worse
  • Emotion Regulation: Understanding and managing intense feelings
  • Interpersonal Effectiveness: Communicating needs and setting healthy boundaries

Best for: Emotional dysregulation, self-harm behaviors, impulsivity, relationship difficulties, and intense mood swings.

Trauma-Focused Therapy (TF-CBT)

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an evidence-based treatment specifically designed for children and adolescents who have experienced trauma. This approach helps clients:

  • Process traumatic experiences in a safe, supportive environment
  • Reduce trauma-related symptoms such as nightmares, flashbacks, and avoidance
  • Develop healthy coping skills for managing trauma triggers
  • Rebuild a sense of safety and trust
  • Strengthen family communication around difficult experiences

Best for: Post-traumatic stress, abuse or neglect history, grief and loss, witnessed violence, and complex trauma.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT helps clients develop psychological flexibility by accepting what is outside their control while committing to actions that align with their values. Through ACT, clients learn to:

  • Accept difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them
  • Stay present and engaged in the moment
  • Clarify personal values and what truly matters
  • Take committed action toward meaningful goals
  • Build resilience through values-based living

Best for: Chronic stress, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, avoidance behaviors, and life transitions.

What to Expect

Initial Assessment

Your first session involves a comprehensive evaluation where we learn about your concerns, history, strengths, and goals. This collaborative process helps us develop the right treatment approach for you.

Individualized Treatment

Sessions typically occur weekly and last 45-60 minutes. Your therapist will work with you to set specific, measurable goals and track progress over time.

Family Involvement

We encourage family participation through regular family sessions, parent consultations, and skills coaching to ensure everyone is working together toward positive change.

Ongoing Support

As you progress, we adjust your treatment plan to reflect your growth and evolving needs. Our goal is to equip you with the tools and confidence to maintain wellness long after therapy ends.
