How We Help

We believe everyone already possesses the inner resources to overcome their struggles.

Our job is to help you find and then apply them.

Life shouldn’t be a constant struggle. When you feel stuck in your day to day, or in your relationships, or you experience overwhelming thoughts that make you feel anxious or depressed, we’re here to help.

We listen carefully and engage thoughtfully, helping you adjust and respond to stress so you can move toward a more balanced and fulfilled life. 

Talk therapy is only one of our modalities. Through interactive, creative counseling sessions that are personalized to your comfort level, we help you find new perspectives. New perspectives help you find new ways to get un-stuck.

From creative arts to mindfulness and meditation, our team uses a multi-modal method to help you grow and flourish in a way and at a pace that is authentic, meaningful and productive for you.

Adults

If you’re struggling to find balance, happiness, or fulfillment, you are not alone. Therapy can help you identify the issues holding you back, learn how to manage anxiety and painful emotions, regain confidence, break unhealthy patterns, and facilitate personal growth.

Couples

Maintaining a healthy relationship can sometimes feel impossible, but the growth that comes from working hard at it is invaluable.

Children

Kids experience overwhelm, trauma, & anxiety just like adults, but it’s harder for them to verbalize emotions. Our child counselors specialize in therapy modalities that help kids open up in a way that feels comfortable and developmentally appropriate. Every session is customized to your child’s needs.

LGBTQ+

Life is full of challenges, but as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, those challenges can have an added layer of complexity. As an LGBTQ+ affirming practice, we help you navigate your unique experience with an empathetic understanding of what you may be going through.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing focuses on bilateral brain stimulation to help trauma survivors process painful memories that are too intense for their brain and body to process on its own. Through EMDR, the memories and emotions connected to the traumatic experience lose intensity, making room for healthier feelings.
