Our experienced team of therapists has been helping clients achieve their best self, better relationships, and a more balanced life since 2012. The more common struggles we help clients overcome are anxiety and depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship problems, and parenting challenges. If you have been wrestling with these or other issues, we are here to help. We work with older kids (8+), adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Most of our therapists are EMDR trained (EMDRIA approved) and also use other effective approaches including CBT, DBT, and systemic approaches.
Areas of expertise include: * Emotional struggles * Anxiety & Depression * Couples & Family * Improving Relationships * Life Transitions * Crisis/Trauma issues * Family of origin issues * Crisis/Trauma * Addictions * Codependency * Decision Making and more. We also specialize in helping veterans and first responders including EMDR treatment.
Cognitive behavioral approach tackles problem behaviors and communication by addressing the feelings, thinking and beliefs that drive the behaviors. EMAIL IS BEST WAY TO CONTACT US. I have over 18 years of experience. Clients usually feel at ease right away. I'm easy to talk to, experienced, and good at what I do.
