Creating an inviting space for self exploration is the backbone of our approach. Our therapists lean into the idea that “two things can be true at once”, believing that when we embody this attitude, our lives become more expansive, rather than narrow. We use the science practitioner model, practicing an evidence based approach while honoring a commitment to "seeing the best in you". We also celebrate the extensive variety of healing philosophies that exist outside the bounds of western science, and are dedicated to continuous professional curiosity and personal growth.

The group provides a supportive, structured environment for adults who grew up in families affected by alcoholism and addiction. Many adult children of alcoholics experienced, over-responsibility for other, difficulty with boundaries, people-pleasing, care-taking behaviors, trouble trusting, relaxing, feeling “not enough” and repeating unhealthy relationship patterns. This group offers educations, coping skills, emotional insight, and a safe place for connection and healing. In this group we will explore ACOA traits and emotional patterns, reduce guilt, shame and self blame, build healthier communication and boundaries, learn grounding, regulation skills, strengthen self-compassion, self awareness, and connect with others who understand.
