You’re not broken. You’re human. And you deserve support.

What we help with
We focus on what you’re going through, not just the type of therapy you need.
Finding freedom from anxiety
Anxiety can feel like your brain is stuck in overdrive—always scanning, always worrying. Whether you're experiencing racing thoughts, panic, or physical tension, therapy can help quiet the noise. Together, we’ll build tools to manage anxiety and find calm in the middle of it all.
Breaking through depression
Depression often makes the world feel heavy, like you're moving through life with no energy or joy. It can make even the smallest tasks feel impossible. In therapy, we’ll help you understand your symptoms, reconnect with yourself, and rediscover a sense of purpose and hope.
Healing the wounds of trauma
Trauma can leave deep emotional echoes that show up long after the moment has passed. You might feel on edge, shut down, disconnected, or easily triggered. Therapy provides a safe space to process painful experiences, release what’s stuck, and begin to feel grounded in your body again.
Navigating conflict in relationships
Whether you're navigating conflict, emotional distance, or deep uncertainty in your relationship, you're not alone. Therapy helps you understand patterns, improve communication, and reconnect. It can also provide clarity about your needs—whether you're working to heal together or find peace on your own.
Helping kids feel seen and safe
Big emotions can feel overwhelming for kids, especially when they don’t yet have the words to explain what’s going on inside. Whether they’re acting out, shutting down, or struggling with anxiety or sadness, therapy creates a space where they can express themselves and begin to heal.

Our therapy modalities
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy
Our Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps our clients stay focused on the present moment and work through their thoughts and emotions, instead of dwelling on or suppressing negative feelings.
Emotionally Focused Therapy
Our therapists are trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for both individual and couples counseling to help clients experience deeper and more meaningful connections in their relationships.
Brainspotting
We use Brainspotting as an alternative treatment tool to help identify and resolve harmful traumas and beliefs. It is a proven method that activates your subcortical brain using spots in a person's visual field.
Sand Tray Therapy
Sand Tray Therapy helps clients express their thoughts and feelings without words. Using small figures in a sandbox, they create scenes that represent their inner experiences, promoting healing.
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps individuals manage trauma and anxiety by using guided eye movements to process painful memories and reduce their emotional impact.

Sand Tray Therapy is an expressive therapeutic approach that utilizes a sandbox and a variety of miniature figures to create scenes that reflect an individual's inner thoughts and feelings. This method is particularly effective for children, allowing them to express complex emotions non-verbally. Adults also find Sand Tray Therapy beneficial for exploring subconscious issues, processing trauma, and gaining insights into their emotional world.
-
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy technique designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. During EMDR sessions, clients focus on traumatic memories while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation, typically through guided eye movements. This process helps reprocess traumatic information, reducing its psychological impact. EMDR is effective in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and other trauma-related conditions.
-

For teenagers, we offer counseling that focuses on issues such as academic stress, peer relationships, self-esteem, and family dynamics.

Absolutely. While couples counseling is ideal for addressing relationship issues collaboratively, individual therapy can also be highly effective. In individual sessions, you can explore relationship patterns, develop healthier communication skills, and gain insights that may positively influence your relationship dynamics. Our therapists can work with you to identify strategies for managing relationship challenges, even if your partner chooses not to participate.

Your initial session is an opportunity for your therapist to understand your concerns, background, and goals for therapy.

Together, you'll develop a plan tailored to your specific objectives.

To participate, you'll need a stable internet connection and a private space for your session.
