At the OSU Couple and Family Therapy Clinic, individual therapy is offered through a systemic lens, recognizing that personal challenges are deeply influenced by relationships, family dynamics, cultural contexts and broader societal systems. We work with clients to explore how these interconnected influences shape emotional well-being and life experiences.
Our therapists support individuals facing a wide range of concerns, including:
- Anxiety and depression
- Grief and loss
- Life transitions
- Identity development
- Relationship challenges
- Stress and burnout
We draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches to meet each client’s unique needs. These may include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns
- Mindfulness-based practices to enhance emotional regulation and present-moment awareness
- Narrative therapy, solution focused therapy and other relational and systemic models that emphasize meaning-making and connection
Our clinicians integrate these techniques within a systemic framework that promotes insight, resilience and meaningful change. Therapy is collaborative and tailored to your goals, and we strive to create a safe, affirming space where you can explore your experiences and strengthen your connections with yourself and others.
Whether you’re seeking support for a specific issue or looking to better understand your place within the systems around you, our therapists are here to walk alongside you with compassion and care.
