Are you... A young adult struggling in the attempt to to navigate life transitions, school, the workforce, family life or other issues?
Or a couple having trouble finding the right words to communicate and find expression in your relationship?
You can thrive.



Hi! I’m Hudi Kowalsky, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a passion to help teens and young adults find meaning and purpose in their lives.



How my practice is different:


Goal Focused Therapy. I believe in short, goal-focused therapy. That’s why, we set goals and together we hit the ground running. If you put in the work, you’ll see results within 12 weeks. I know that’s a bold statement, but my past clients can attest to that.


Client Feedback. I check in periodically on your thoughts about the process. I want to hear from you, what’s working? What isn’t? Is there anything that you’d like to see different? And then I tweak it accordingly.



I know it can be hard to find the right therapist. Maybe you think it’s only for people with “serious” issues. Maybe you’ve been to a few therapists but you didn’t see change and you’re wondering what another therapist can offer you. Maybe you’re afraid of what people will think of you if you go to therapy. Maybe you’re not sure therapy is worth the investment.



I understand. That’s why I’m here to answer any questions you may have prior to booking an intake session.

You hold the world together for everyone else. But balancing the complex demands of caretaking, family crises, or supporting a child's disability means your own needs have likely taken a backseat.

My goal is to give you that space back. I bring a grounded, warm presence (and a little humor) to the therapeutic process. Together, we can actively untangle the overwhelm or create a quiet space for profound realizations. Let's talk about how to get you feeling grounded again.
