Individual Counseling for Emerging Adults and College Students
Life is challenging - you don't have to navigate it alone.
I'm Conner, and I specialize in working with emerging adults and college students navigating academic stress, identity questions, uncertainty about the future, and the many pressures that come with figuring out who you are.
This stage of life tends to bring nearly everything into view at once. You may find yourself asking - or being asked - things like: What do I want to do with my life? What am I passionate about? Where do I belong? Who am I attracted to? Who do I want to become?
If this feels like a lot to carry, that's because it is - and you don't have to carry it alone.
You might be navigating
- Identity questions, or figuring out who you're becoming
- Uncertainty about your path, major, or what's next
- Anxiety or the pressure to have it all figured out
What to expect:
- Start where you are: a free consultation, no pressure to have anything figured out yet
- Sessions that blend helpful tools with deeper exploration with a compassionate presence
- Space to sit with uncertainty and still keep moving forward, while noticing the patterns keeping you stuck
Grief Counseling
Loss is a universal and powerful experience, yet it is seldom given the space to be fully felt.
Grief is never quite the same for any two people, even when they're mourning the same loss. That can leave you feeling like nobody will understand you, which often leads to social withdrawal at exactly the moment connection may help most.
Your grief might come from the death of someone you love, the end of a meaningful relationship, a move to a new place, the loss of a job, or another change that's reshaped your life. Whatever form it takes, I offer a space where it doesn't have to be explained, minimized, or rushed — just welcomed, gently and fully.
You might be looking for support with:
- The loss of a loved one, relationship, or life stage
- Grief that others expect you to have "moved on" from
- Anticipatory grief, or the ambiguous loss that follows
What to expect:
- A space that moves at your pace - no fixed timeline, and no pressure to "just move on"
- Support exploring how loss is showing up for you while finding ways to build a life that feels meaningful alongside it
- A steady, compassionate, non-judgmental presence throughout the processing of grief
Nervous System-Informed Regulation Therapy
Feeling safe in your own body isn't a luxury - it's something every one of us deserves.
Between school, work, and relationships, it's easy to lose touch with the vital priority of feeling safe and regulated that our nervous systems require.
Over time, this can leave your nervous system out of balance, quietly disconnecting your body from your mind, and shaping how you think, feel, and show up in life without you even realizing it.
When our nervous system becomes consistently dysregulated, we may experience:
- Racing thoughts, restlessness, or difficulty sitting still
- Difficulty concentrating or feeling foggy
- Feeling stuck and frustrated in fight, flight, freeze, or shutdown
Together, we'll draw on intentional, body-based approaches alongside practical tools to help you recognize what dysregulation feels like for you, and build compassionate ways back to a felt sense of safety - so you can meet life from a grounded place instead of a disoriented one.
What to expect:
- Support recognizing your own signs of distress so you can respond to yourself with care
- Mindful and somatic-informed activities woven throughout our work, to build awareness of what's happening in your body and release tense energy weighing you down
- A collaborative and trauma-informed pace honoring what feels safe for you
Culturally Responsive and Informed Counseling
You shouldn't have to leave part of yourself at the door to be cared for.
In care settings, many culturally diverse clients learn to set their culture aside to be seen or understood - trimming down who they are to fit into the room. But here, your culture isn't something to leave at the door. It's essential to understand how to support you best.
As a multicultural person with Japanese, Filipino, Mexican, and Chamoru roots, I approach this work with compassion and an open heart, never asking you to choose between your culture and yourself. That means holding room for your cultural values and your own individuality - both can matter, without either being minimized.
You might be navigating:
- Balancing family, cultural, or social expectations with your own path
- Bicultural identity, or feeling caught between two worlds
- Generational differences in values, communication, or expression
What to expect:
- A space where your culture is welcomed in the room, not something to explain or justify
- Tools to help you sit with the discomfort that can come with cultural or family conflict, without losing yourself in it
- Ongoing reflection on what matters most to you, so the path forward reflects your values
