I work with individuals who are looking to improve their mental health and overall well-being. My clients are often seeking a safe and non-judgmental space to explore their emotions, gain insight into their behaviors, and learn new coping skills. They may be experiencing challenges related to relationships, work, or other areas of their lives, and they are motivated to make positive changes.

Starting the therapy process is a sign of strength and vulnerability. I believe that we all have the power to create change in our lives by allowing ourselves to see ourselves and be seen by others in our lives. Together, we will explore the origins of your patterns of thinking/behaving/relating as well as the functions that these patterns serve, assess your barriers to change, identify your strengths and resources, and practice new ways of coping in order to help you live a more satisfying life.

At Barefoot and Balanced, we believe therapy should feel like a place where you can show up as yourself—not as who you think you’re supposed to be. We work with teens, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, and life transitions. Our approach is compassionate, practical, and individualized, drawing from evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches. We also offer therapy with an ASL-fluent therapist for Deaf and Hard of Hearing clients. We’ll meet you where you are and help you figure out what comes next.

My name is Mara Owens, LPC, and I am a person-centered counselor who will work with you to find the approach that best helps you find your peace and self-possession. I became a counselor to help others by using lived experience and a deep investment in giving people the person they need to walk along the path to wellness. I am deeply invested in working with those coping with Anxiety, Depression, OCD, and trans-affirming care. I also have a deep understanding of grief work. I'm always going to take your lead, and I won't use a therapist's voice. I promise.

My ideal client would be someone who is experiencing a mix of challenges, such as anxiety, stress, or relationship difficulties, and is seeking personal growth or emotional healing. This person is open to self-reflection and motivated to make positive changes in their life. They may be navigating significant life transitions, such as changes in their career, relationships, or family dynamics. They want support because they recognize that they can’t continue on their current path without making changes, and they are committed to doing the inner work required for growth and healing.

You know that clear life plan you had when you were younger? How's it going? Not as planned, eh? Has it been dashed, changed, delayed, destroyed or forgotten? Yah, I get that. I'm guessing that's why you are here. It's hard to know what to do when you feel overwhelmed and alone. In this stage so many of us also experience shame because of this....but that one is a doozy! There is hope and a way forward. Give me a call. I like to help make sense of trauma, confusing relationships and grief. Come find a safe place to land here.

Life is a rich and beautiful opportunity for growth, yet sometimes everything seems overwhelming and it's hard to find a way forward. How do we balance relationships, work, and our own wellbeing when our mind is racing and emotions overpower us? You do not have to do it alone.
I specialize in trauma therapy and work with adults struggling to manage anxiety, depression, and confusing, difficult emotions. Many of my clients feel emotionally ‘stuck’ despite having done therapy before, and are ready to go a step deeper to address the underlying issues that continually cause distress in daily life.

Are you struggling with your day-to-day? Feeling the impacts of systemic oppression? Are you navigating loss? Are you a little (or a lot) too hard on yourself? Are you doing any or all of this as a queer, trans, or neurodivergent person? If you answered yes to any of those questions, I have a hunch we'll be a good fit for one another.

When we try to control or avoid anxiety, thoughts, memories, and difficult emotions it doesn't work. Troubling thoughts and memories keep intruding, depression worsens, panic attacks happen more, and urges to do troubling compulsions or rituals become stronger. In other situations avoiding and fixing problems is very effective, like fixing a flat tire or leaving town to avoid a hurricane. However, when we try this with our thoughts and feelings we get stuck, feel hopeless, and continue to suffer. This estranges us from the people, places, and activities that we cared about most.

You may be finding yourselves caught in familiar patterns, having the same conversations without feeling understood, or wondering how you got so far from the connection you once shared. Over time, these cycles can leave both partners feeling alone, even when you care deeply about each other. In relational therapy, I create space for you to better understand one another, shift unhelpful dynamics, and explore what feels meaningful and possible for your relationship. Many couples find that with support, new understanding, gentler communication, and a clearer sense of direction begin to emerge.

Thank you for checking out my profile! My name is Serena, and I'm the owner of Buried Moon Counseling. I'm here for the trauma survivors. Were you raised in foster care? Adopted? Carrying generational trauma? Do you often feel overwhelmed, unloved, unseen, incapable of thriving? I want you to know you are not damaged goods. Those of us who lived the hardest moments of our lives in our formative years often come to this point later in life. When everything is finally calm, or when it seems like it will never end, suddenly we're back in time. I'm here to walk you forward, and help you heal. If you feel safe with me, I know I can help.

I work with adults and adolescents who seek insight into their struggles with autism, ADHD, trauma, anxiety, sexual issues, and depression, among other concerns.

I help people find relief from emotional pain; people seeking help with difficult situations. People who have lost their self confidence... and people seeking more balance in their lives. People with concerns about aging, relationships and life choices. I'm experienced working with troubled relationships, young adults, families, and with clients involved in legal problems (forensics). My clients decide what they want to achieve in therapy, and we work together to achieve those goals.

My clients meet with me from the comfort of their own home or wherever they may be. I work remotely, but have some in-person appointments as well. I bill in 15 minute increments for self-pay clients to allow flexibility for my client's needs. I do not require an appointment and will take calls if I'm available to allow for short talks as needed, or call you back as soon as I am available. My goal is to make something that may be uncomfortable and inconvenient for some people as comfortable and convenient as possible. There is no waiting 3-4 weeks for an appointment and or wasting time in the first session filling out paperwork.
