Cultivate a therapeutic relationship and receive practical advice

We value the importance of being empathic and nonjudgmental. We aim to develop therapeutic relationships that meet you where you are. Our therapists will help you gain a new perspective while processing your feelings, enriching your self-care, and developing coping skills. They will sometimes explore and challenge your thinking and behaviors while also identifying and improving on your strengths.


Our therapists are trained in a variety of evidenced based therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy.

  • ADHD in adults

Individual Adolescent Counseling

Provide a safe place for adolescents to work through their emotions:

Sometimes life can be challenging for children, teenagers, and their families. Our therapists have years of experience engaging with youth, providing a safe place for them to express their feelings and develop coping skills. Our therapists practice from a family-systems approach and will include the parents/caregiving system while respecting the child's relationship and privacy.


Our therapists are trained in Play Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).


We treat a wide range of child and adolescent concerns which may include but are not limited to

  • Adoption and foster care related concerns
  • Changes in the family structure
  • Parent divorce and separation
  • Bullying
  • School refusal
  • ADHD
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Loss & grief
  • Loss of a friend or family member by suicide
  • Trauma-related concerns
  • Challenging behaviors

Couples Counseling

Clarify your feelings and resolve roadblocks

We recognize that individuals do not function in isolation; when one part of a system is off balance it can affect the entire structure. Couples therapy can help you regain connection, promote balance and harmony, and deepen your understanding of one another. Couples counseling helps you and your partner explore new ways to communicate and function within your relationship.


Often families and couples seek therapy for the following reasons:

  • Continual communication breakdowns
  • Change or any adjustment
  • An individual within the couple system is feeling isolated
  • Grief and loss
  • Mental health or substance abuse challenges
  • A trauma experience has occurred
  • The family or couple system is not functioning
  • Divorce or separation has been discussed or has happened
