Papini Counseling

Navigating Life Together: Your Path to Clarity & Growth

Our Approach

At Papini Counseling, we believe healing and growth are most powerful when they are supported by compassion, collaboration, and evidence-based care. Our approach is rooted in the belief that each person’s experience is unique, and therefore, therapy should be tailored to fit the individual—not the other way around.

We combine clinical expertise with real-world strategies to help clients build insight, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful change. Whether you are navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or everyday stress, our team works alongside you to identify goals, develop practical skills, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Our clinicians draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, trauma-informed care, and person-centered approaches. We also incorporate mindfulness, psychoeducation, and strengths-based techniques to support clients in building long-term emotional well-being.

In addition to individual therapy, we offer couples and family therapy, group support, coaching services, and professional development for schools and organizations. Whether you are seeking personal growth or system-wide support, our team is dedicated to creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward.

You don’t have to come into therapy blind…

Every clinician at Papini Counseling offers a free 15 minute phone consultation to ensure we are the right fit for you.

  • "When I found Papini Counseling, I was navigating a deeply challenging season - professionally and personally. I had experienced significant grief, and the loss of direction and passion in my work felt like a different kind of mourning altogether. I'd been to therapy before, but I struggled to find the right connection. Here, for the first time, I truly feel heard and seen."
