THERAPY
At INPOWERED Therapy
We hold a deep sense of our shared humanity at the heart of the work we do.
We believe everyone is the expert on themself and that we all hold the ability to grow, heal, and change within us— we just need to learn how to connect with it.

Modalities
Our team draws heavily on attachment-based theories in addition to somatic, body-focused and mindfulness-based treatments such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), yoga therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and other holistic and integrative practices.
Internal Family Systems is an evidence based approach that gives meaning and compassion to our parts to help understand our feelings and behaviors so that change happens through curiosity and love.
Somatic psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach which engages the body awareness as a powerful tool and intervention in therapy.
“Listen to the sound of the waves within you”
- Rumi
Pause, breathe, and release into the cleansing waves of Lake Michigan. Mindfully watch waves crash against the shore against a backdrop of stormy skies broken by rays of light through the clouds.
Therapy Services
Children
Children who are struggling are often only able to communicate their pain by showing us behaviorally.
Our approach is based on the belief that we are all doing the best we can with what we have available to us in the moment and as such our goal is to compassionately understand the whole system. This begins with a comprehensive assessment of the child and their family’s strengths, challenges, history, and social context in order to seek a deep understanding of each individual’s lived experience, allowing us to take a comprehensive and individualized approach focused on strengths.
Adolescents
We look at adolescents as part of a bigger family system, offering support to families and adolescents experiencing low motivation and school refusal, social anxiety, performance anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, and cultural identity.
Individual
Through a parts lens, we get curious about your parts and their function. This allows for non pathologizing and compassionate growth. We also find growth edges to challenge our clients to noticeable change.
Group
Group therapy is a special healing experience and opportunity to connect with others who have similar feelings and experiences. There will be group therapy offerings coming soon.
Relationship Therapy
We offer support around topics such as communication, compromise, finances, and intimacy through a compassionate lens that also offers skill building and curiosity. We support all types of relationships including couples, marriage, friendships, and ethical non-monogamous relationships.
Areas of Focus
-
Attachment Trauma
The ability to securely attach is foundational as human beings and children will do whatever it takes to maintain a relationship with those with whom they are attached. When these attachment relationships are unsafe we shut down parts of ourselves and develop protective strategies to survive.
-
Anxiety + Panic
Our holistic approach, blending somatic therapy and internal family systems therapy, can help you gain a deeper understanding of your anxiety and develop effective strategies for managing it.
-
Codependency
Codependency, often rooted in childhood experiences, can hinder personal growth. At our holistic psychotherapy practice, we address codependency with empathy, helping clients establish healthy boundaries and cultivate self-reliance.
-
Depression
Depression is more than sadness; it's a complex experience. We understands the depth of depression, from feeling disengaged and lethargic to constant fatigue and irritability. We provide empathic support to guide your journey toward healing and empowerment.
-
Disordered Eating
Using food as a way to cope with challenging feelings is a common experience for many. This may look like a cycle of overeating and regret, chronic restricting, or feeling fixated on food and your body. We incorporate IFS to understand protective parts and follow HAYES method.
-
Grief
Grief is a natural response to life's profound changes, from shattered dreams to pandemic-induced losses, strained relationships, or the passing of loved ones. At our holistic psychotherapy practice, we provide a safe space to explore and heal these emotions.
-
Parenting
It’s incessant, exhausting, and often triggering. Raising good humans is one of the most difficult and important jobs you will ever do. It’s normal to have times where you feel out of sorts and in need of support. We are here to help you get grounded in your best self so you can be the parent you want to be.
-
Parents of Multiples
Parenting twins is a unique journey that layers all of the typical parenting challenges with the increased complexity of navigating the twinhood experience. Find support as you navigate the highs and lows of raising multiples.
-
Perinatal Concerns
Having a new baby causes massive upheaval and for many people this transition brings with it postpartum depression and anxiety. It can feel scary to acknowledge that you are not feeling that baby bliss our society sells us but you are not alone.
-
Relationship Concerns
Relationships are hard, they are the place we are called to be our most vulnerable and thus press on painful attachment wounds, inviting us to self protect.
-
Religious Trauma + Spiritual Abuse
Religion can be a source of great solace but for some it can also be a source of trauma and pain. Whether exploring your faith or facing the pain of a previous negative religious experience, we have clinicians on staff who have extensive experience in working with these populations.
-
Transition
Transition can be a time of excitement and growth but it can also stir up parts of us that feel conflicted, fearful, overwhelmed, or unsafe. We are here to support you through your difficult adjustment.

I offer my clients warmth and acceptance in our work together, encouraging thoughtfulness and collaboration that leads to living an authentic life. What is right for some is not right for all, so I encourage my clients to identify their own values and goals to create their own roadmap.

Lisa Lien
I work from a primarily relational based framework that takes into account various influential factors, some of which include the impact of early development, attachment, identity, methods of striving for significance and belonging in the world, and strategies for establishing resilience and coping with distress.

Kelsee Costanza
I hold that the foundation for meaningful therapy is a therapeutic relationship in which you feel seen, heard, secure, and valued. As part of fostering such a relationship, I aim to create a space that is supportive and inclusive of all identities and experiences.

Throughout our lives, we are wounded in big and small ways in our relationships. I believe that healing these wounds must happen in relationships, as well. In my eyes, that’s what therapy is all about.

Taking the first step in finding a therapist can be overwhelming, but finding someone you feel comfortable with can make all the difference! I aim to work with my clients to create a space that is comfortable, non-judgmental, and safe; while still challenging them to make the changes they are looking for.
