Isabella Bendix

I’m Isabella, a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in individual and relational therapy. I offer evidence-based care utilizing The Gottman Method, mindfulness-based approaches, attachment theory, and somatic practices. I am trained as a systemic therapist, which means I take into account how individual symptoms are influenced by broader systems, such as family, romantic relationships, culture, gender, race, and sexuality. My goal is to create a warm, compassionate, non-judgmental environment for my clients to explore themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. I approach counseling with curiosity about my clients' unique experiences and perspectives. I aim to collaborate with clients to foster self-compassion, greater understanding, find meaning in difficult moments, and create a path toward more fulfilling relationships. Therapy with me feels like talking to a trusted friend who can help you reach your goals using evidence-based methods. I have extensive training in The Gottman Method and have helped hundreds of individuals and couples reduce conflict and feel more connected. I also specialize in helping clients navigate grief and loss. I move beyond talk therapy and give my clients practical tools to use outside of our sessions, creating lasting change. Many of the experiences that inform my work as a therapist come from just being human. I understand what it is like to navigate complex relationships, experience grief and loss, and feel stuck in repetitive cycles. I am here to walk with you through these life moments.
