Services
Individual Counseling
Specialized mental health treatment for adults aged 16+. Our 55-minute sessions address anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, and personal growth through evidence-based therapeutic approaches. We focus on uncovering root causes of emotional distress while developing practical coping strategies. Clients benefit from our integrative methodology combining narrative therapy, energy psychology, and Jungian principles to promote lasting behavioral change and improved emotional well-being.
Couples Therapy
Comprehensive relationship intervention for married and dating couples. Our 55-minute sessions employ Pia Mellody's codependency framework and Terry Real's relational life model to address communication breakdowns, infidelity recovery, and intimacy issues. We specialize in helping couples navigate midlife relationship crises through structured therapeutic exercises designed to rebuild trust and foster authentic emotional connection.
Discernment Counseling
Focused five-session program for couples facing potential divorce. This structured protocol helps mixed-agenda couples evaluate their relationship options through a combination of individual and joint sessions. We provide objective assessment of reconciliation potential while developing practical plans for either relationship restoration or amicable separation, incorporating managed separation agreements when appropriate.
Hypnotherapy
Specialized 90-minute sessions using hypnotic induction techniques to access subconscious patterns. Our certified hypnotherapists employ guided imagery and suggestion therapy to address self-esteem issues, habit modification, and trauma resolution. This evidence-based approach facilitates rapid behavioral change by targeting deep-seated cognitive patterns that resist traditional talk therapy interventions.
Neurofeedback Training
Advanced 33.5-minute neurofeedback sessions using NeurOptimal technology. This non-invasive brain training system improves cognitive function and emotional regulation by addressing dysregulated brain wave patterns. Effective for anxiety reduction, focus enhancement, and trauma recovery through real-time central nervous system feedback that promotes optimal neural pathway development.
