Therapy looks different at every age, and that’s the point!

At our Richmond office, we’ve got a counselor for everyone:
☀️ Kids learning to navigate big feelings
☀️ Teens figuring out friendships, school stress, and identity
☀️ Parents juggling all the things (and maybe forgetting themselves in the process)
☀️ Adults ready for a reset, some clarity, or just a safe space to be fully heard

Each person’s journey deserves its own space, its own pace, and a therapist who really gets it.

It doesn’t always happen all at once. ☀️

In individual therapy, change often starts with the small stuff — the quiet insights, the one moment you pause instead of react, the shift in how you speak to yourself when no one’s listening.

These moments may not seem big at first. But over time, they add up to something really meaningful.

It’s one of the hardest places to be — when you care deeply but feel disconnected. 😞

And it’s also one of the most common things we hear in couples counseling.

The truth is, most couples don’t struggle because they don’t love each other. They struggle because they don’t feel heard, known, or understood in the moments that matter most.

Relationship counseling offers a space to slow down the patterns, get curious about the dynamic, and learn how to communicate in ways that bring you closer.

We’re here to support the process of finding your way back. Get started at sunstonecounselors.com 🧡

Back-to-school check-in! How’s everyone really doing? 🤔

Excited? Overwhelmed? A little bit of everything?

This time of year can bring all the feelings — for kids and parents. New routines, new teachers, new social dynamics, maybe even a new school altogether… it’s a lot to adjust to, even when things are “going well.”

Maybe your child is counting down the days.
Maybe they’re feeling anxious, clingy, or quiet.
Maybe you are holding it together for them, but wondering how you’ll juggle it all.

If your household can relate, we’re here to support you and your child as you settle into this next chapter.

We often think of therapy as something we turn to in hard times. And yes, it can absolutely be a lifeline when life feels heavy.

But it’s also so much more than that! ☀️

Therapy can be a place to reconnect with yourself. To dust off old dreams. To rediscover what lights you up. To grow into who you’re becoming.

The word therapy actually means “to give attention to.” And what a gift it is to give attention to your mental health, your goals, your values, and your voice.

🧡 What part of your life could use a little more attention right now?
