Advanced Counseling Solutions

Introduction: Currently, I am seeing clients in my office as well as via the internet with zoom. I do not process insurance claims. My clients use their Health Savings, Flexible Spending Accounts or major credit/debit cards, Venmo, and PayPal to pay for their therapy. I have been specifically trained to counsel couples, children, and families. I am trained in all three of the nationally top ranked relationship therapies: Gottman, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Imago Relationship Therapy as well as some other therapy methods. I have earned a post graduate certificate in play therapy for children as well as many related trainings for children and families.

Ilene is also a Certified Havening Techniques Practitioner. Havening Techniques is a relatively new psychosenory technique which can be used for the treatment of traumatic memories, anxiety, phobias, and instilling positive affirmations of self. In addition to being a prominent relationship therapist, Ilene is also a highly sought-after play therapist and has served on the board and as President of the Kentucky Association for Play Therapy for the past 9 years. Play Therapy is a respected evidence-based means of engaging and helping children who naturally speak better through acting out what is going on inside of them rather than directly communicating as adult would about their emotional difficulties. If your child is struggling with emotional or behavioral difficulties, and having trouble communicating about the cause and/or nature of their struggles, then some form of play therapy may be very helpful. "I enjoy working with couples, individuals, and families who usually come to me bewildered of what is not working with their relationships. And then in a few sessions they not only have identified what is not working for them but now they and understand why it isn't and how to change to have effective and peaceful interactions," Ilene Bosscher.
