Services
Individual Therapy
Personalized one-on-one therapy sessions address depression, anxiety, trauma, and emotional regulation challenges. Our evidence-based approach combines cognitive behavioral techniques with experiential methods to develop practical coping strategies. Clients work at their own pace in a supportive environment to overcome past burdens and build healthier life patterns through weekly 50-minute sessions.
Couples Counseling
Specialized relationship counseling helps couples improve communication and resolve conflicts. Using Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy techniques, we address both emerging and established relationship challenges. Sessions focus on building positive interaction patterns and developing tools for maintaining healthy connections in both heterosexual and same-sex relationships.
Group Therapy
Therapist-led group sessions provide peer support and real-world interaction for mental health treatment. These sessions offer cost-effective alternatives to individual therapy while maintaining clinical effectiveness. Participants gain new perspectives through shared experiences while developing emotional expression skills in a structured, supportive environment.
Trauma Treatment
Specialized trauma therapy addresses post-traumatic stress disorder and complex trauma experiences. Our integrative approach combines cognitive processing with somatic techniques to process traumatic memories safely. Treatment focuses on building emotional regulation skills while addressing the lasting impacts of traumatic brain injuries and developmental trauma.
