Traditional therapy is limited. The Dual Therapist Model is a revolutionary approach that defies those limitations. Two therapists work together to deliver their expertise and insight, providing clients a more complete journey, full of growth and transformation.
Diverse viewpoints lead to deeper self-discovery and more effective coping strategies. A partnership also benefits therapists, providing ongoing peer support, skill enhancement, and fun — yes fun. It also has proven to prevent burnout.
As we love to say:
two brains, two hearts, and twice the healing.

A New Frontier for Therapy and the F-word.
(relax, we mean fun!)
A shared love of the outdoors and adventure convinced the doctors they needed to work together. But that was just the beginning.
Kelly Yanek and Michele Kinderman met in 2007 at their sons’ daycare facility. Their friendship grew from common interests, a love of nature, and their careers as psychologists.
After years of brainstorming and exploring their passion for the outdoors, they launched Wellness Outside the Box, a one-of-a-kind practice that is based on their revolutionary Dual Therapist Model. This collaborative approach enables them to model communication, humor, connectedness, trust, and genuineness.
The doctors have experienced the incredible benefits of the Dual Therapist Model for themselves and their clients, and firmly believe that this model will forever change their profession, reducing burnout and stress for the therapists, and introducing a little fun into the work.
