Services List

The first step is a thorough assessment of your concerns and goals. This initial session also gives you the opportunity to see if our therapists are the right fit for you. Over the first few sessions, we will dive into the details of what brought you here. This may include filling out brief questionnaires or connecting with previous providers if helpful. We strike a high-quality balance: gathering enough information to build a great treatment plan without overwhelming you.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Once we establish your goals, we shift into active therapy. While typical treatment lasts around 20 sessions, your plan will be entirely tailored to your specific needs. We utilize proven, evidence-based practices, but our absolute priority is ensuring you feel safe, heard, and empowered to heal.

3. The Maintenance Phase
After reaching your goals, we work to solidify your progress. Some clients prefer to finish therapy completely once their goals are met. Others prefer to transition to less frequent "booster sessions" to stay on track and maintain their mental wellness long-term.

Adult Counseling

Work one-on-one with a compassionate therapist in a safe, confidential space designed entirely around your unique story. Together, we use evidence-based best practices to help you manage anxiety, navigate major life transitions, and work toward meaningful, lasting personal change.

Successful relationship therapy requires a structured, deliberate roadmap. We break our couples counseling process down into three distinct phases so that you and your partner always know what to expect.

1. The Assessment Phase (Sessions 1–4)
Good treatment begins with a thorough evaluation. The first four sessions make up our comprehensive assessment phase, where your collective concerns are outlined, specific goals are established, and readiness for treatment is determined:

Session 1: The couple meets together with the therapist to discuss the relationship dynamic.

Sessions 2 & 3: Each partner has a private, individual one-on-one session with the therapist.

Session 4: The couple reunites for a joint feedback and alignment session to map out the treatment plan.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Following the initial assessment, active therapy begins. From this point forward, all sessions will be joint couples sessions, as mixing active individual and couples therapy is not a recommended clinical practice. The typical course of treatment lasts around 20 sessions, customized entirely to the specific dynamics, history, and goals of your relationship.

3. The Maintenance Phase
After successfully completing treatment and reaching your goals, long-term success requires protection. Many couples transition from weekly therapy to scheduling a preventative "booster" or check-in session every three to six months for continued accountability, support, and relapse prevention.

Couples Counseling

Don't wait until challenges feel overwhelming to invest in your relationship. Our specialized therapists team up on the side of your relationship as a whole to help you break unhelpful patterns, resolve chronic conflict, and rebuild deep, lasting intimacy.

Successful family therapy requires a careful, collaborative approach where everyone has a voice. From the initial evaluation to active treatment, our focus is on understanding the goals and problems from everyone's unique perspective. We break our family counseling process down into three clear phases.

1. The Assessment Phase (Sessions 1–3)
Good treatment begins with a comprehensive understanding of the family system. During the first two to three sessions, we focus on mapping out the primary concerns and hopes of each family member. To build a complete picture, it may occasionally be helpful to speak briefly with an extended relative, complete targeted clinical questionnaires, or connect with previous treatment providers. We strike a balance: gathering enough insight to build a shared roadmap without making the process feel overwhelming for your children or teens.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Once a clear path forward is established, active therapy begins. While a typical course of treatment lasts around 20 sessions, your family's plan will be entirely tailored to your specific household dynamics and needs. We integrate everyone's individual goals with the best available clinical research, utilizing proven, evidence-based practices in an environment where every member feels secure, respected, and open to change.

3. The Maintenance Phase
After your family has successfully met its goals, long-term stability is our priority. Some families prefer to finish counseling completely once their baseline goals are achieved. Others find it incredibly beneficial to shift to less frequent "booster sessions" or periodic check-ins to maintain their progress, protect their new communication habits, and keep the household on track long-term.

Family Counseling

Restore harmony and connection to your home by giving every family member a safe, supportive space to be heard. We help your family system improve communication, set healthy boundaries, and navigate difficult adjustments or lifestyle transitions together.

Successful youth therapy requires flexibility, safety, and a collaborative approach involving the key figures in a young person's life. Throughout the process, we partner closely with parents and, when beneficial, coordinate care with school teachers or medical providers. We break our child and adolescent counseling into three clear stages.

1. The Assessment Phase (Sessions 1–3)
Good treatment begins with an adaptable, thorough evaluation of your child's needs. During the first two to three sessions, we typically adjust our meetings to look at the whole picture—often meeting with parents or caregivers alone first, followed by a joint session, and spending individual time with the adolescent. In some cases, a family dynamic observation is completed. To ensure a comprehensive approach, both parents and children may complete brief questionnaires, and we frequently connect with your pediatrician, psychiatrist, or other school supporters with your permission.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Once a customized roadmap is created, active treatment begins. While a typical course of therapy lasts around 20 sessions, this timeline varies greatly based on your child's developmental age and goals. We understand the realities of balancing therapy with school schedules, sports, and summer activities, and we will collaborate with you to balance mental health goals with your busy lifestyle. We utilize proven, evidence-based youth modalities while prioritizing a safe, engaging environment where your child or teen feels comfortable opening up.

3. The Maintenance Phase
After your child or teen has achieved their primary goals, long-term stability is our focus. As children grow and enter new environments, it is common to check back in as they hit different developmental milestones. Many adolescents value having our practice as a safe, trusted space they can return to throughout middle school and high school transitions. While many families graduate fully from treatment, others choose to transition to preventative "booster" check-ins to protect their progress long-term.

Child and Teen Counseling

Growing up comes with unique challenges, and having the right tools can make all the difference. We partner closely with parents and caregivers to help children and teens manage emotional distress, navigate behavioral hurdles, and build lifelong mental wellness.

Successful perinatal therapy honors the delicate timelines and physical realities of pregnancy and early parenthood. We build a highly personalized, flexible care plan that respects your physical recovery, infant scheduling demands, and personal goals. We guide you through three clear phases of support.

1. The Assessment Phase (Sessions 1–3)
Every individual's path to parenthood is deeply personal. During the first two to three sessions, we complete a thorough, gentle evaluation focused on understanding your current concerns, emotional baseline, and immediate support systems. We work together to explore what you are experiencing, establish meaningful goals, and determine if our maternal health specialists are the right fit for your needs. With your permission, we can easily coordinate care with your OB/GYN, midwife, or doula to ensure your medical and mental health teams are fully aligned.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Once your specific needs are mapped out, we transition into active, goal-oriented therapy. While a typical path of care averages around 20 sessions, your timeline is entirely adaptable based on your life variables. Several of our clinicians hold advanced Postpartum Support International (PSI) certifications, utilizing proven, research-backed modalities like CBT, ACT, and EMDR. Our main priority is maintaining an emotionally secure space where you feel completely safe to address vulnerable feelings without fear of judgment.

3. The Maintenance Phase
After you have successfully processed your challenges and reached a stable, healthy baseline, we protect your progress. Some parents graduate fully from care once their baseline goals are met, confident in their new toolkit. Others find it comforting to transition to less frequent "booster check-ins" timed around specific milestones—such as returning to work, stopping breastfeeding, or transitioning through developmental infant regressions—to keep their mental wellness on track.

Perinatal Counseling

The journey to parenthood brings immense transitions that extend far beyond the "baby blues." Our advanced maternal mental health specialists provide a warm, nonjudgmental space to help you navigate prenatal anxiety, postpartum depression, and the complexities of adjusting to life with a newborn.

EMDR is a structured, distinct psychotherapy that follows a comprehensive clinical protocol. Rather than an unpredictable process, your healing journey is mapped out across three clear, transparent phases to ensure you feel secure, prepared, and supported at every step.

1. The Assessment & Preparation Phase (Sessions 1–4)
Successful EMDR therapy begins with safety and target selection. During your first few sessions, we focus on detailed history taking and preparation. Your therapist will explore your unique concerns, map your history, and provide you with practical, brain-based tools to manage distress and promote emotional regulation. Together, we identify the specific memories, physical sensations, or negative self-beliefs to target. We move at your exact pace, ensuring you feel stable and fully prepared before moving into active reprocessing.

2. The Active Reprocessing Phase
Once the foundation is secure, we transition into active EMDR treatment sessions. Using evidence-based desensitization techniques, your therapist will guide your focus toward an identified memory while introducing gentle bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tactile taps, or auditory tones). This dual attention allows your brain to safely reprocess the memory, stripping away the painful emotional charge. We then focus on "installation"—integrating strong, positive beliefs to replace the old, negative self-statements—followed by a full body scan to ensure no residual physical tension remains before providing a structured closing routine to stabilize your well-being.

3. The Reevaluation & Maintenance Phase
Long-term healing requires continuous protection. As you progress, we continually reevaluate your symptoms to ensure complete resolution of the targeted challenges. After your primary trauma goals are met, we focus on future planning. Some clients choose to conclude therapy completely, confident in their newly processed experiences. Others prefer to transition to less regular check-ins or "booster sessions" to stay grounded, protect their progress, and navigate new life transitions with confidence.

EMDR Therapy

Past trauma and distressing memories can leave you feeling stuck and disconnected from your own life. Using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), our trained specialists activate your brain’s natural healing mechanisms to strip away the painful emotional charge of trauma without requiring you to talk through every painful detail.

Successful therapy during your college years requires a flexible, modern approach that respects your academic workload and changing schedules. We map out our student counseling framework into three transparent phases so you always know what comes next.

1. The Assessment Phase (Sessions 1–3)
Good treatment begins with a thorough understanding of your current routine and concerns. During the first two to three sessions, we focus on assessing the specific pressures, history, and goals impacting your life. This phase gives you a chance to see if your therapist is the right fit for your personality. We balance getting the details needed to build a highly targeted plan with ensuring you don't feel overwhelmed. With your permission, we can also coordinate with on-campus health services or prior hometown providers to keep your care completely seamless.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Once your goals are outlined, active therapy begins. While a typical course of care averages around 20 sessions, your plan is fully customized and adapts to semester shifts, exam blocks, and summer breaks. We utilize proven, research-backed modalities—such as CBT, DBT, and ACT—to help you build concrete coping mechanisms. Most importantly, we maintain a secure space where you feel completely supported as you unburden stress and work on what you need to address.

3. The Maintenance Phase
After you have reached your baseline goals and feel steady, we work to protect your long-term mental wellness. Some students choose to complete therapy entirely once their immediate goals are achieved. Others find it incredibly grounding to transition to less frequent "booster check-ins" timed around highly stressful periods—such as midterm season, finals week, or transitioning into a new internship or graduation—to ensure they stay on track.

College Student Counseling

University life brings a perfect storm of intense academic pressure, identity exploration, and sudden independence. With extensive background in university counseling settings, our therapists provide a flexible, modern environment to help you manage stress, avoid burnout, and thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

Recovering from addiction and creating lasting behavior changes can feel overwhelming, which is why having a clear, structured roadmap is vital. We map out our outpatient addiction counseling into three distinct phases to ensure you feel supported, stable, and accountable at every turn.

1. The Assessment Phase (Sessions 1–3)
Long-term habit change begins with a comprehensive, personalized evaluation. During the first two to three sessions, we focus on understanding the root causes of your usage, your history, and your specific goals. We evaluate whether outpatient psychotherapeutic care is the safest next step for you, or if an initial medical detox is necessary. We balance gathering enough history to construct a solid plan with ensuring you don't feel overwhelmed when opening up to a new counselor. With your permission, we can easily coordinate care with your physician or primary care providers.

2. The Treatment Phase (Approx. 20 Sessions)
Once your initial safety and targets are mapped out, active individual therapy begins. While a typical course of care averages around 20 sessions, your exact timeline will vary based on your specific life circumstances and needs. Utilizing proven, evidence-based practices—such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)—we focus heavily on expanding your coping toolkit. We work to implement healthier alternatives to handle life's stress and trauma in an environment where you feel completely safe to address what you need to fix.

3. The Maintenance Phase
Achieving stability is a major milestone, but protecting that progress long-term is the ultimate goal. Encountering setbacks and relapses is a normal part of the human recovery journey. Because of this, our maintenance phase focuses heavily on community integration, ongoing accountability, and relapse management. Rather than stopping abruptly, many clients transition to less frequent, strategic "booster sessions" to ensure they stay grounded, recover quickly if a lapse occurs, and steadily pursue their long-term health goals.

Addiction and Substance Use

When automatic loops and substance reliance take over, breaking the cycle requires specialized support. In a completely nonjudgmental space, we offer structured outpatient therapy to help you reduce intense cravings, build a robust coping toolkit, and establish a sustainable path toward recovery.
