About Mulligan Counseling
Therapy is a space where your story can be heard with care, nuance, and respect.
My approach
I believe people do the best they can with the tools they have. In therapy, we slow things down enough to notice patterns, make sense of how they developed, and experiment with new choices.
My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded. I bring curiosity and honesty rather than quick fixes, and I’ll invite you to bring your full, imperfect self into the room.
Together we may explore your relationships, family history, identity, boundaries, and the stories you carry about yourself. We’ll also look for strengths—places where you’re already resilient, wise, or resourceful, even if you don’t always feel that way.
What sessions are like
In our first few sessions we’ll clarify what brings you in and what you’re hoping is different. I’ll ask questions about your history and what life looks like right now. We ’ll move at a pace that feels safe for you.
Over time, our work might include noticing patterns as they show up in the room, practicing new skills, or reflecting on your experiences through different lenses. You can always ask for more structure, more reflection, or more tools—we’ll keep checking in about what’s helpful.
Inclusive practice
My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and anti-racist. I welcome clients from diverse cultural, racial, and spiritual backgrounds, and I’m committed to ongoing learning, humility, and accountability.
If you have specific questions about whether I’m a good fit for your identities or lived experience, please reach out. I’m always happy to talk about it.
Is this the right fit?
A strong therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in meaningful change. It’s completely okay—and encouraged—to ask questions, pay attention to how the space feels, and advocate for what you need.
If at any point it seems like someone else might be a better fit, I’m happy to help with referrals and next steps.
