At Ascent Therapy Group we believe in the human ability to rise, grow, and blossom. Ascent means to rise through the air. A seedling rising is a symbol of growth, hope and possibility. Even when conditions are undesirable, the ability of a seed to sprout, grow and evolve over time represents our belief in you. At Ascent Therapy Group, we value connecting with you in a way that offers warmth, safety, and healing. We believe connection is an energy exchange; it has the power to deepen the moment, inspire change, and cultivate natural strengths.
At Ascent Therapy Group we hope to provide you an experience that nurtures your authentic self and transcends your struggle into peace. Our providers can offer a variety of specialty services, including play therapy, CBT, ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), trauma-focused work, EMDR, DBT, and more.
