Finding Your Way

[Coming June 2026]
A Collaborative Partnership for Your Journey
Traveler Counseling is a specialized practice led by Geoff Cotton, a former Special Education Coordinator with over 25 years of leadership experience, and Stephanie, a veteran of health systems and pharmacy advocacy.
We are more than a traditional counseling office; we are a dedicated team built to help you navigate life’s most complex transitions. By combining clinical expertise with a deep mastery of systemic advocacy, we ensure your path is supported by both professional insight and practical, logistical care. When the road changes and the old maps no longer work, we help you find your footing.

Grounded, Collaborative, and Resource-Focused We don't believe in one-size-fits-all counseling. Whether you are navigating a career change, a relationship shift, or a personal diagnosis, our approach is designed to be:
Practical & Goal-Oriented: We move beyond traditional talk therapy to help you identify tangible tools for balance, communication, and decision-making.
Systemic Insight: We provide the perspective gained from years within the education and healthcare systems. While you remain the driver of your own journey, we offer the systemic insight and professional documentation to help you move through your world with greater clarity.
Strengths-Based: We focus on the resilience you already possess, helping you refine your core values and reignite your purpose so you can move forward with clarity.

Adults and Teens (15+) Navigating Change: We partner with individuals and couples who are ready to do intentional work to improve their quality of life. Our practice is a fit for:
Individuals in Transition: Those facing career crossroads, mid-life shifts, or the "wear-and-tear" of high-pressure seasons who need a collaborator to help them recalibrate.
Couples: Partners seeking to strengthen their foundation, improve communication, and navigate the changing roles that come with long-term commitment and parenting.
Older Teens & Emerging Adults (15+): Young people navigating the high-stakes transition from high school to adulthood, college, or the workforce.
Neurodiverse-Aware Support: While we work with a broad range of clients, Geoff’s deep background in special education allows him to provide expert, identity-affirming support for adults and teens navigating ADHD, Autism, or 2e profiles.
Individual Counseling
You don’t have to navigate the wilderness alone. Individual support for the road ahead.
In individual therapy, we’ll map out the obstacles holding you back and equip you with the tools to keep moving forward.
Couples Counseling
Two travelers, one path. Let’s find the way back to each other.
Couples therapy for partners navigating communication hurdles, life transitions, or a loss of connection.
Neurodivergent-Affirming Counseling
Navigating an “expected” world can feel like traveling without a reliable map, leading to burnout and masking. Drawing on 25-plus-years in Special Education, Geoff provides neuro-affirming guidance for ADHD, Autistic, and 2e individuals (ages 15+). He helps you navigate sensory regulation and reclaim your personal identity beyond a clinical label.
