Getting to know William Palmer Jr.
Connection is one of the most fundamental human needs. And when it’s missing, everything feels harder.
Maybe you feel distant from your partner and can’t quite name why.
Maybe your friendships feel surface-level, or you struggle to find a sense of belonging.
Maybe you’re in college or starting your first job in the “real world” and you’ve lost touch with your goals or who you are beneath all the expectations.
Maybe you’re noticing how the world treats marginalized communities and you’re afraid to openly identify with who you truly are.
These situations - and so many more - separate you from the world you want to live in. That disconnection can leave you feeling lonely, unfulfilled and ashamed, even when life looks fine from the outside.
The truth is, we all crave meaningful connection - with others, with purpose and with ourselves.
But life has a way of creating barriers.
Trauma, relationship conflict, burnout, anxiety, or simply years of putting everyone else first can make it difficult to reach out or trust that connection and safety are even possible.
That’s where therapy comes in.
My approach is grounded in compassion and curiosity, helping you understand how your experiences and relationships have shaped the way you show up in the world. We’ll explore not only what’s painful, but also what’s possible—because healing happens in the presence of safety, understanding and genuine connection.
I work with young adults navigating identity, transitions and self-discovery. I also work with romantic partners who want to rebuild trust, deepen communication, and rediscover joy in their relationship. Together, we’ll uncover patterns that keep you stuck and develop new ways of relating that feel authentic and empowering.
While I bring research-based methods to my practice, I believe you are the expert in your own life. My role is to create a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you can reconnect—with yourself, your relationships, and your sense of meaning.

We do NOT accept insurance at this time.
We are committed to providing a supportive and personalized therapeutic experience. In our office, our goal is to help you find your "middle path" to wellness, offering a peaceful space to explore and heal. We certainly don’t want finances to be more of a burden to you.
When deciding between insurance and private pay, consider the following:
Financial Situation: Assess your budget and determine what you can afford without compromising your financial stability.
Therapeutic Needs: Reflect on the importance of therapist compatibility and the ability to work alongside your therapist to determine what your therapeutic needs are, not rely on a stranger to make that determination based on an algorithm.
Privacy Concerns: Decide how much you value confidentiality and whether you're comfortable with insurance companies accessing your therapy records and that information being part of your lifetime record.
