Set Sail Counseling, LLC

Set Sail Counseling is owned by Stacy Dove (our LPC) and Samantha Liggett (our Practice Manager). The practice was born out of two dreams, a friendship, and a shared vision of client focused, feminist-centered counseling.

Having worked together for more than 8 years, we both felt an increasingly strong desire to incorporate intersectionality within the therapeutic space. We believe that you cannot treat a person without treating the whole person, and that all of our social stratifications (i.e., race, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, etc.) do not exist separately from the other. We recognize that every challenge you have faced is a different piece of the puzzle that is you– and you can’t finish a puzzle if you’re missing pieces! As American writer, feminist, and civil rights activist Audre Lord declared, “There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives.”

While we have a focus on women’s issues and trauma, we are happy to work with any gender identity (though we do not provide services for anyone under the age of 18). We also have experience with many other issues such as anxiety, personality disorders (like OCPD or BPD), and mood disorders (like clinical depression or bipolar disorder). We’re honored that you are considering us as you launch forth into your journey toward healing, wellness, and creating the joy that you deserve.
