    Services

    Our practice specializes in adolescent and adult individual outpatient counseling services for mental health and substance use concerns.

    We now have couples counseling! Our counselors use evidenced-based approaches for couples counseling. Our therapists have clinical experience working with couples. Couples counseling helps two people involved in a romantic relationship gain insight into their relationship, resolve conflict and improve relationship satisfaction.

    Therapeutic Techniques We Use

    Acceptance Counseling uses a strength-based model. We work together with you to help find inner strengths, build upon them, and achieve healing. We utilize a collaboration of techniques from the modalities below and pride ourselves on the extensive trainings we have completed in these areas.

    Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)

    We all strive for connection and avoid the negative feelings of being alone. This technique may benefit you to rebuild lost connections by tapping into your core emotions. You can expect this technique to leave you feeling more grounded to self and others. Learn More

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Interventions

    If you are experiencing lack of motivation, panic, lowered self-worth, constant worry, frustration, sadness and strain in your relationships, than we may begin with CBT. We will look at your thoughts that lead to behaviors and see if the behaviors are positive or negative. We will focus on behaviors that make you feel good again. It will help increase emotional resilience, build tolerance for frustrations, and support positive relationships.

    Motivational Interviewing (MI) Techniques

    Motivational Interviewing is highly successful in treatment of addiction. Ever feel like you are on the fence about quitting drugs or alcohol? Or perhaps the motivation slips depending on the day? This technique can help tap into the ambivalence and help you find motivation and reason for change.

    Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

    Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy and is applied to treating mood disorders, suicidal ideation, and behavioral patterns such as self-harm, and substance abuse. Learn More

    Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

    Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma. Learn more

    Family Systems

    Family systems therapy helps individuals resolve their problems in the context of their family, where many issues may stem. The family is viewed as one emotional unit. Learn More
