EMPOWERED. GROWTH. WELL-BEING.
Our Award-Winning Team Can Help You Uncover Your True Potential.
WE ARE HERE TO HELP
We are here to support you or your child through life's challenges and help you to feel more empowered to achieve your goals.
ACCESSIBLE & INCLUSIVE
We are deeply committed to accessibility, inclusivity, and being an affirming practice. We proudly employ several members of the LGBTQ community as providers and administrative staff in order to provide a safe, welcoming, and relatable experience for many of the individuals we serve who find it difficult to secure a good fit in more traditional practices. Racial and cultural competence are the "rule" for our staff, not just an exception. We strive to ensure that everyone entering our practice feels safe, affirmed, and respected.
BEST PRACTICES IN THERAPY
Because of our very active role as both an Association for Play Therapy and National Board of Certified Counselors Approved Provider, we hold ourselves to the highest level of accountability when it comes to best practice and the latest, most innovative trends in counseling and psychiatric care.
