A Place for Growth

Pain is part of being human, but suffering doesn’t have to be.


We help you better understand yourself, build emotional awareness, and move through life with greater clarity, courage, and self-compassion.

Our work goes beyond navigating immediate challenges. We offer space, tools, and support to help you grow, deepen your self-understanding, and move forward in a way that feels meaningful and sustainable.

Counseling

Life can hold joy and difficulty, simultaneously.

Our counselors work with individuals, children, teens, couples, and families.

How we support you:

  • navigate difficult decisions
  • explore challenging emotions
  • work through relationship struggles
  • process trauma and past experiences
  • build comfort with uncertainty
  • cultivate calm and reduce overwhelm
  • manage ADHD and other neurodivergent concerns
  • strengthen communication and boundaries
  • improve symptoms of anxiety and depression
  • process grief and loss

We provide supportive, nonjudgmental, and compassionate care in a confidential space. Our team is trained in a range of evidence-based approaches including EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Play Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and more.

Sessions are available in person or online offering a space to reflect, process, and work through what matters most to you.

We act as an objective supportive presence helping you uncover patterns, understand barriers, and move toward greater wellbeing. Our work blends both the science and art of psychotherapy.

 

Psychological Evaluation

Our licensed psychologist provides comprehensive, trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming evaluations for both children and adults.

Evaluations are designed to help clarify your experiences, determine whether a diagnosis is appropriate, and provide clear, thoughtful recommendations.

We offer evaluations for:

  • ADHD
  • Autism
  • Psychoeducational needs
  • Differential diagnosis

Depending on the evaluation type, the process may include:

  • a clinical interview (virtual or in person)
  • in-person assessment and testing
  • a follow-up session to review results and recommendations

Our goal is to offer insight, understanding, and a clear path forward.

DBT Skills Class

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) helps individuals build practical skills for managing emotions, improving relationships, and navigating distress.

DBT is grounded in the understanding that you are doing your best and that meaningful change is possible with the right tools and support.

Core skill areas include:

  • Mindfulness | staying present and aware
  • Distress Tolerance | navigating difficult moments
  • Emotion Regulation | understanding and managing emotions
  • Interpersonal Effectiveness | improving communication and relationships

Our DBT skills classes are structured, supportive, and focused on real-life application.

Participants learn not just what to do, but how to apply these skills in everyday situations.

Monthly Clinician Process Group

We know that as lifelong learners we cannot be our best professional self in isolation. That is why we have created monthly clinician processing groups. These 2 hour in-person groups are small, encourage vulnerability, and meet the needs of mental health professionals who might otherwise lack professional connection.

These are not therapy, networking groups, or case presentation groups. Rather, this is a space to process our experiences with clients and the impact they have on our professional wellbeing. This time is about YOU. To be seen and heard. To show up authentically and introspectively ready to give and take in the group.

Our groups align with the following American Counseling Association’s ethical guidelines including:

  • C.2.d. Monitor Effectiveness 
  • C.2.e. Consultations on Ethical Obligations
