Services
Trauma Therapy
Our trauma-informed therapy addresses both 'Big T' and 'small t' traumas using evidence-based techniques. We help clients reprocess traumatic memories while building present-moment coping skills. Our approach integrates neuroscience to restore mind-body balance and reduce symptoms like anxiety, flashbacks, and emotional numbness.
EMDR Therapy
EMDR therapy accelerates trauma recovery through guided eye movements that reprocess distressing memories. This scientifically validated method helps clients integrate traumatic experiences into their autobiographical memory, reducing emotional overwhelm and restoring personal agency in a safe, controlled environment.
Psychological Testing
Comprehensive assessments identify cognitive patterns related to ADHD, learning disabilities, and dementia. Our evaluations combine clinical interviews with standardized testing to create personalized treatment or educational plans that address each client's specific needs and strengths.
Child Counseling
Specialized counseling for children uses play therapy and sand tray techniques to express complex emotions. Our clinicians address behavioral issues, anxiety, and trauma while collaborating with parents and school staff to create consistent support systems for young clients.
Family Therapy
Family therapy sessions address communication breakdowns and relationship conflicts through structured interventions. We help families establish healthy boundaries, improve emotional expression, and navigate challenges like divorce, substance abuse, and intergenerational trauma using evidence-based frameworks.
