Welcome to the Water & Stone Community!

Hello! Thank you for visiting!
I am Emery Mikel, the founder and director of Water & Stone.

I just wanted to take a moment to invite you to explore our website and learn about the professional therapists on my team as well as the services we offer. When you are ready, you can reach out for a brief phone conversation and share more about what brings you to therapy, as we work together to find the best options for you to get the support you are looking for.

A little background, we are a contemplative, creative arts psychotherapy practice focused on helping people of all ages access a space that supports the exploration of difficult topics, creates the possibility for relief from overwhelming emotions, builds the resilience of each person so they know they can make it through challenging times, and makes sure you know you have someone in your corner who believes in you and is solely focused on your mental health and well being.

My aspiration is to help each person find the support here at Water & Stone that helps them tap into the power of their inherent bravery and strength, embracing all the emotions and experiences that come with being alive. I hope we can help you make it through the hard times and celebrate the wonderful ones! Since each therapist has their own specialties and passions, during your free phone consultation, I'll help connect you to the therapist with the approach, skills, and background that fit best for you.

How Can We Best Support You?

Therapy for
All Ages and Couples

Create a space with your therapist to explore, express, and get support around all that's going on in your life. Having someone show up just for you, every week can make a huge difference.
Often it brings relief, supports personal growth, and elicits new insights; creating lasting change.

Therapy Groups

Whether you are looking for support and connection from peers or exploring options while on a budget, groups can offer you a space to be heard, seen, and grow as a person. In each group there is time to share, explore, and connect with others while gaining the support of a compassionate therapist.

Click here for groups that are currently running or about to start.
