Hudi Kowalsky Counseling

Helping couples, families, adults, & adolescents find their way forward.

The hardest part is already behind you.

Whether you’re a teen struggling in school, a couple at an impasse, or a family finding it hard to connect, I’m here to help you navigate whatever you’re struggling with. Realizing you have an issue and reaching out for help is half the battle – together, we’ll find a way for you to move forward and thrive.

I’m Hudi Kowalsky,

a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a passion for helping people reach an understanding that allows them to find meaning and make changes in their life.

How My Practice Is Different:

Goal Focused Therapy. I believe in short, goal-focused therapy, which is why we set goals together and hit the ground running. If you show up with an open mind and a genuine desire to change your life, I’m positive you’ll see results in just a few months.

Client Feedback. I check in periodically to hear your thoughts on the process – what’s working? What isn’t? Is there anything that you’d like to see different? We’ll work together to develop an approach that feels most effective for you.

A Few Fun Facts About Me

In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar and practicing yoga. I find both activities to be calming and enriching, adding a holistic dimension to both my life and my practice.

From a young age, I’ve been fascinated by the capacity for human resilience. By studying the Holocaust and working with refugees and trauma survivors, I’ve heard stories that filled me with a sense of purpose and drove my passion for helping others.

FAQ

Here are some frequently asked questions I get. If you don’t find the answer you’re looking for, feel free to give me a call.

How long will each session take?

Regular sessions are 50 minutes; longer or more frequent sessions are available upon request.

Do you accept insurance?

Insurance and billing info is available upon request.

Do you work with couples? With schools?

I’m happy to collaborate with your support system, whether that’s your school, community leaders, counselors, etc.

If I go to therapy, does it mean I’ll have a diagnosis?

Nope. Not everyone who goes to therapy has an official diagnosis, and even for those who do, their diagnosis can change over time. If you are going to therapy, all it means is that you are taking care of your mental and emotional health.
