therapy Customized Just for You

You are not broken—you’re becoming.
You’re in the right place.

Feeling Stuck + Overwhelmed?

Life’s challenges can often leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. Whether you’re navigating the impact of trauma, neurodivergence, or life’s unexpected transitions, you may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of where to turn next.

You’re really good at walking on eggshells…

Maybe you’ve spent years walking on eggshells—at home, at work, or in relationships—affected by the weight of coercive control and interpersonal violence.

Nothing Makes Sense

You might feel like an outsider, looking in on a world where your path feels meaningless or disconnected.

Shame and Guilt are Frequent Visitors

Or you might carry shame and guilt for your emotional ups and downs, especially in moments where you react instead of respond.

If any of this resonates, we want you to know: You are not alone.

Your brain is
brilliant at survival.

Therapy helps
it learn to rest.

Meeting the Parts of Your Brain
at Creative Fox Counseling Center*

Your Wise Owl

The wise owl symbolizes the pre-frontal cortex, the center of executive functions and rational thinking. When we’re upset, it’s like our owl has ‘flown away,’ akin to Dan Siegel’s hand model of ‘flipping the lid.’

Your Watch Dog

The watchdog represents the amygdala, constantly scanning our environment to help us identify and respond to threats. As stress intensifies, our protective watchdog can escalate from cautious vigilance to an ‘Attack Dog’ mode.

Your Possom

The possum represents the dorsal vagal complex, activating our primitive survival instincts located at the back of the brain. It helps us freeze (dissociate and ignore an issue) and fawn (neglect our needs in order to please others) in response to toxic stress, also known as trauma.

*Note: Robyn Gobbel is responsible for translating the language of polyvagal theory into this easy-to-understand version!

Most therapy talks about thoughts.

We honor your body, creativity, and survival wisdom too.
