Great to meet you!

Welcome to Evolve to Thrive! This is Tricia Brunner—thank you so much for reaching out. We are honored that you are considering our practice for your care.

We are a boutique Marriage and Family Therapy and Wellness practice designed to provide a personalized, elevated therapy experience. We offer virtual telehealth services for individuals and couples, supported by a carefully selected team of clinicians specializing in a variety of approaches.

My Work: My work is centered in Imago therapy and eclectic styles of therapy based in neuroscience that the brain is wired for joy.

Our Group Practice: Unlike larger practices, we intentionally maintain a boutique model so each client receives thoughtful attention, personalized guidance, and a therapist match that aligns with their unique needs, goals, and personality. Our mission is to create a warm, supportive, and transformative experience where clients feel understood, valued, and empowered throughout their healing journey. We offer flexible care options, including in-network insurance benefits. As the Practice Owner, I personally meet with prospective clients during the consultation process to learn more about what brings you to therapy, understand your goals, and thoughtfully guide you toward the clinician who is the best fit for your care.

For couples, the consultation is an important first step in determining the right therapeutic match. We will discuss your relationship goals, communication patterns, and what you are looking for in couples therapy while helping connect you with the therapist on our team best suited to support your relationship. While I truly value the opportunity to meet with you, my role as Practice Owner is to ensure you receive the highest level of care from the clinician who is the right fit for your needs.

All consultations are covered and billed through insurance. Our website is www.evolvetothrive9.com.

My approach to therapy

My Approach: I offer a collaborative and integrative approach designed to help you feel more at ease within yourself while cultivating deeper, more meaningful connections. Rooted in a person-centered and eclectic style, I draw from evidence-based modalities tailored to support your unique goals. My work is grounded in creating a warm, attuned, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore, grow, and feel supported. As both a therapist and practice owner, it is a privilege to partner with you on your journey toward greater empowerment and well-being. I do see a handful of clients weekly for therapy.

Consultations & Therapist Matching: We recognize that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I offer consultations to help determine which therapist may be the best fit for your needs, ensuring a personalized and thoughtful treatment plan for you and your family, which is your first visit with me. As the Practice Owner, I personally meet with prospective clients during the consultation process to learn more about what brings you to therapy, understand your goals, and thoughtfully guide you toward the clinician who is the best fit for your care. During this process, we will review available options, including insurance-based care and private-pay services, to create a personalized plan that best supports you.

If you have any questions before your consultation, please reply to this email or contact our office at 732-732-3153.

We look forward to learning more about your goals and helping you take the next step toward reconnecting, healing, and thriving.

Couples Work: Our therapists that accept insurance for couples work are currently booked. Our couples sessions are currently out of pocket. If you are a couple seeking therapy, you can both be set up for individual therapy, which is covered through insurance.
