A Different Therapy Experience
Everchanging is a private outpatient mental health counseling practice incorporating experiential Adventure Therapy into counseling services for individuals of all ages, families of all sizes, and people of all paths of life.
Everchanging empowers people to engage in whole-person change through authentic and interactive experiences both in the office and outdoors to help navigate through processes of change.
Our main focus is reconnection – to the process of change and purpose, to your authentic self, and to what and who you love – by creating a space to learn and grow that fits who you are and your unique needs.
Adventure Therapy
Office Meetings
For first sessions we’ll meet in person in Rocky River or via video, and after that we can meet in whatever location best suits our work together and matches your needs and preferences.
Nature Sessions
Walk-and-talk sessions on paths and trails, sessions in the park sitting under trees or by creeks and lakes, or even finding a tree to climb into for our session, we collaborate with Nature to enhance our sessions.
Adventure Work
We practice and process through challenge activities, somatic mindfulness practice, active communication activities, and other forms of doing in addition to talk-based processes.
Collaboration
Our values of Acceptance, Adaptation, Adventure, Assertive communication, and Authenticity guide everything we do, starting with our initial meeting and continuing throughout our work together.
