Second Story Counseling
It's time to take back control of your direction, start fresh, set realistic goals, and start writing a story you want to live!. Is life not the way it's supposed to be? Do things seem broken? Maybe it's anxiety, a relationship problem, or emotional pain from long ago. Maybe it's something that "just doesn't feel right", or perhaps you just need extra support for a major life decision or situation.

We are here to listen and to help provide the confidence and guidance you need to change negative behavior patterns and begin taking steps in the right direction. As professional therapists, our role is to guide you as you take steps towards positive life changes, healing, and a healthy mind.
Services
More than just a listening ear, we are here to help you discover a new perspective, identify the source of the challenges you're facing, and equip you with the resources you need to overcome. Beyond developing a healthier mind, we'll assess your overall wellbeing, including physical and emotional wellness.
To get started, let's setup an appointment. During this time, we can talk about what you'd like to work on and treatment options that might be best. Additionally, we can answer any questions you might have about the counseling process and provide you with additional information for getting started.
It's a little different for everyone. Some signs that you might need some help from a professional are when the way you feel begins to negatively impact your sleep, your job, appetite, relationships with friends and loved ones, or your decision-making abilities.

If you find that you feel "blue" a lot, or that things just aren't getting better or even that things seem hopeless - these are also pretty strong indicators that it's time to seek out a trained professional to help.It's easy to put off seeking out help for something that's negatively impacting the way we feel.
Give us a call to hear about how we work with you to make counseling accessible and affordable. We accept cash, check, health saving and flexible spending accounts, as well as all major credit cards. Second Story is currently in network with a number of insurance companies, and are able to bill a number of other insurances out of network.
Your privacy is important to us, and you can trust that our sessions, as well as any of your personal information, is always held in the strictest of confidence.

I've spoken a lot with Kelly, who is one of the counselors at Second Story Counseling and also used to be a coworker of mine. Kelly is absolutely great to talk to no matter what topic or level of issue that you want to talk about. She has always made me feel very comfortable and has become a close friend of mine. She is also great at remaining professional while being comfortable and relaxed at the same time.

I've have always felt like Mike is a very interactive listener. He listens well through the messiness of life and helps you organize it better so you yourself can deal with it. He is very professional and really wants to help. His desire to help you work out and see how your own story fits into God's story, has always been an amazing trait of his. It's been a really blessing to know him and spend time with him. Mike works harder than anyone else I know. He not only has the desire, but he has the skills to be successful. He has spend long hours and countless sleepless nights preparing to be the

I highly recommend Mike's practice. Mike has given me counsel on two occasions (the birth of our premature baby, as well as a situation involving a friend's struggling marriage) and both times his thoughts and advice were spot on. I appreciated that Mike listened well, asked pertinent questions, and gave me advice that helped me make a good decision.
