Teens & sandtray
Talking about feelings can feel awkward or overwhelming. Sandtray and creative approaches offer another way for teens to explore emotions, relationships and difficult situations.

Support for veterans navigating trauma symptoms, life transitions, relationships, emotional regulation and rebuilding connection. Discuss your experiences and treatment needs with KJ to explore fit.
Adult trauma therapy
A supportive space for adults navigating childhood trauma, difficult relationships, grief, anxiety and significant life experiences, with care shaped around your goals and pace.
What sessions with KJ can look like
Therapy begins with getting to know you and what you want support with. You and KJ can discuss current concerns, what helps you feel comfortable and which approaches fit your needs.
Alongside conversation, sandtray and experiential activities may help you explore experiences that are difficult to put into words. You do not need artistic skills or a prepared story. Your comfort, choice and readiness guide the process.
Insurance & Medicaid
KJ accepts most major insurance plans, including Medicaid, subject to individual verification. Your specific plan, network status, eligibility and any out-of-pocket costs must be confirmed before services begin.
