Child and Adolescent
Therapy
As children grow, we believe in actively supporting the development of the skills and emotional intelligence they need to lead healthy, fulfilling lives. We partner with parents and educators to provide effective tools that nurture each child’s unique emotional and behavioral growth. Play and talk therapy both provide valuable support, guidance, and insight for children and their caregivers alike.
Couples
Therapy
Relationships take work. Just like cars, they need regular care and attention to stay strong. Our certified therapists provide a supportive space where couples can share, grow, and thrive. We equip you with practical tools to strengthen your relationship, improve communication, clarify needs, and build a deeper, more meaningful connection for years to come.
Family
Therapy
Families experience unique dynamics and challenges. Whether navigating a stressful event, communication difficulties, or ongoing conflict, therapy helps strengthen relationships and restore balance. Our family counseling services support healthier communication, deeper understanding, and greater harmony within households of all sizes, compositions, and backgrounds.
Walk and Talk
Therapy
Walk and Talk Therapy offers a refreshing alternative to traditional sessions, combining movement with conversation. This active approach enhances both mental and physical well-being, helping you feel more at ease and less “stuck” as you work through your concerns. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, work stress, a sudden loss, or relationship challenges, sessions are tailored to your pace, comfort level, and personal therapeutic goals.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. By focusing on distressing material in brief doses while also engaging an external stimulus, EMDR helps people heal psychological trauma quickly and effectively.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) incorporates many techniques used in other traditional and somatic therapies to treat trauma and complex trauma. ART works to reprogram how distressing memories and images are stored in the brain so they no longer trigger strong physical and emotional reactions. Highly effective, ART often takes only a few sessions to achieve desired results.
