In therapy, we plan based on your vision of your best life. Then, we look at what could be getting in your way. Is it past trauma? Depression? Anxiety? ADHD?

Other Services We Offer
Family therapy
When crisis hits, families don’t necessarily need a formal intervention, they need a competent professional to help them navigate the waters of addiction, affairs, mental illness and trauma. It helps to work with someone who has seen thousands of families through these situations. Family therapy is more of an orientation than the number of people in the room. It is based on anthropology, sociology, the study of communication, systems theory and psychology. Family therapy is the leading discipline in the field with the most evidence-based outcomes.
couples therapy
Why was the beginning of the relationship so easy? People sometimes struggle to find their way back to each other, and when they do, often there are two things missing — attraction and respect. What does it take to reignite the spark between two people so that they find each other again? Our approach is based on family systems theory, Robbins-Madanes training, Pia Mellody’s trauma model and the research of John and Julie Gottman.
