Our Services
Play Therapy
Play is a child’s natural medium of self-expression. Play therapy, therefore, allows children to use their natural language of play to process experiences and feelings.
Adolescent Therapy
Counseling teens and pre-adolescents to suit the needs of the individual client. Approaches may include traditional talk therapy, group therapy, and activity therapy.
Individual Therapy
Counseling provides a genuine and non-judgmental relationship to help our clients explore their thoughts and feelings to achieve balance and growth.
Group Therapy
Group therapy extends the healing process from occurring within a one-on-one therapeutic relationship to a larger supportive environment.
Parenting Support + CPRT
Parents want the best for their children, and with so much conflicting parenting information available, it can be difficult to know exactly what that means. Child Parent Relationship Training is a program in which parents learn to use some of the same basic therapeutic skills as play therapists.
Telehealth Services
Therapy from where you are. Telehealth counseling is a great choice for those with busy schedules or health concerns as it allows for flexibility and easy accessibility. Your counselor will meet you in a HIPAA compliant virtual counseling room for these sessions.
