Per Aspera Counseling

We're located at 123 W Eight St. Suite 203, Lawrence, KS Ad Astra Per Aspera: To the stars, through hardship. Ready for life to feel differently? Tired of feeling overwhelmed, lost, hopeless, neglected, uncertain, stuck, and frustrated? Maybe you’re navigating life’s hardships (past, present, or future), are trapped in unhelpful patterns, or feeling disconnected from your true self. Whatever you’re facing, I sincerely believe therapy can create meaningful change in our lives, and that we can figure out more together than we can alone. My role is to build a safe and supportive space to explore your challenges; provide useful and empowering tools/approaches/resources; and respectfully and collaboratively support you on your journey ahead. Drawing on my diverse training, we’ll begin by exploring your life experiences, beliefs, perspectives, and intrinsic strengths. From there, we’ll define your challenges, needs, and goals to draft a plan for creating change in your life. Although therapy is a process, I aim to empower my clients to cope with life’s hardships long after our work together ends. If you’re ready for change, growth, and healing, I’d be honored to partner with you in creating the life you want and deserve. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to explore if we feel like a good fit, and I’m happy to answer any questions you may have about therapy or my practice. But most importantly: I hope you know, deep down, you CAN do this!
