Our Services

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is a great way to explore the way that your core beliefs, values, and expectations impact your behaviors. Individual therapy can be a safe space to vent or a place to begin to implement changes in your own life. We use evidenced-based models to uniquely treat each patient. You decide what your goals for therapy are, and we help you move in the right direction.

Meal Support

KC Counseling also offer Meal Support Group therapy. Meal support group is a psychotherapy group intended to support those engaging in eating disorder treatment who are struggling to complete meals and/or struggle with disordered behaviors during meals.

Family/Couples Therapy

Family and Couples therapy works to heal systemic thoughts, behaviors, and emotions impacting relationships from functioning to their fullest.

Nutrition Counseling with Registered Dietitians

Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is used separately or in conjunction with eating disorder therapy. Our dietitians work collaboratively with our therapists to provide the best patient outcomes.

Group Therapy

KC Counseling offers group therapy for those that wish to heal their relationship to food and their body. We explore things like the detrimental effects of chronic dieting, internalized fat-phobia, food rules, disordered behaviors, and how our past impacts our current relationship with food. Group therapy can be a great way to connect with other individuals who have experienced similar struggles.
