Welcome to Compass North: A Space for Growth, Insight, Connection, and Practical Life Tips

Hi there, and welcome! I’m Aaron Abrams, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the founder of Compass North Counseling and Training Services. I’m so glad you’re here.

This blog is an extension of the work I do in therapy—a place to explore ideas, share reflections, and offer practical tools for navigating relationships, personal growth, and everyday challenges. Whether you're a current or potential client, a fellow clinician, or simply someone curious about mental health and wellness, you’re invited to follow along.

Each week, I’ll be writing about themes that show up often in my work and in life:

• How couples can move through conflict with more clarity and care

• Communication that fosters connection rather than confusion

• Setting boundaries with family that feel respectful and sustainable

• Goal setting that aligns with your values

• Understanding emotional investment and how it shapes our relationships

My hope is that these posts feel thoughtful, grounded, and genuinely useful—practical life tips that you can return to when you need perspective or encouragement.

If something here resonates and you’d like to explore it more deeply, I’d be glad to connect. You’re welcome to reach out and schedule a consultation by emailing me at aaron@compassnorthcounseling.com or calling 425-395-4646.

Thanks for stopping by. I look forward to sharing more with you.
