Counseling

We're Glad You're Here

It takes courage and conviction to decide to make changes in one’s life. We take a compassionate approach to counseling by offering clients a safe place to explore issues that have been hard to come to terms with. If you are hesitant about seeking help, you’ve come to the right place.  Let’s work together, hand in hand, to help you find your way. Below are some of the counseling approaches and programs available to you and your family. Services are also available in Spanish.

Insurance companies are billed for your convenience (simply verify your benefits and coverage with your insurance carrier).  In addition, cash, check, or major credit cards are accepted at the time of service.  Interested in scheduling?

Therapy

Services are provided for individuals (adults, adolescents, and children), couples, and families. Therapy sessions give you an opportunity to explore challenges in great detail as we work together to create a plan for positive change.

Therapy can be a significant investment of your financial resources. We approach counseling in a way that allows us to quickly identify and focus on areas in which obstacles block your path to emotional well being. We will help you identify how you have come to the obstacle, and how to remove it or move around it. The skills, resources, insight, self awareness, and confidence that you leave therapy with will be with you well beyond the counseling office. The benefits of investing in yourself, relationship, family are priceless.
