Services Offered

We offer a variety of services designed to meet the unique needs of each individual who seeks our assistance. Some of the services we offer include:

• Individual Therapy: In individual psychotherapy, you and your therapist explore in a confidential, trusting relationship the issues and concerns that are troubling you. You will have the chance to review how your situation developed and to discuss the meaning of those issues in your life. Together with your therapist, you will set goals for your treatment and work together to re-establish a life that feels more fulfilling and more effective. Individual therapy is helpful for a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and abuse or trauma.

• Marital/Couples Therapy: Couples come to therapy with concerns such as communication difficulties, ongoing conflict, decreasing intimacy, lack of trust, and doubts about the future of their relationship. The therapist begins by listening closely to each person's unique perspective, then connects with each person while establishing a neutral, non-judgmental position. The therapist's office becomes a safe place where couples express their concerns with the understanding that issues will be handled constructively. Many therapeutic tools help couples decrease conflict and achieve greater understanding and intimacy.

• Family Therapy: Family therapy involves the entire family in the therapeutic process, allowing family members to understand and address the issues affecting them as a unit. Family therapy can be beneficial for families dealing with a range of issues, including communication difficulties, conflict, and adjusting to changes within the family.

• Anxiety Disorders: Anxiety disorders are common and can significantly impact an individual's quality of life. We offer therapy and assessment services to help individuals understand and manage their anxiety.

• Psychoeducational and Psychological Evaluations: These evaluations are designed to assess cognitive, academic, and social-emotional functioning. They can be beneficial for individuals seeking to understand their learning style, address academic difficulties, and develop strategies for success.

• Depression: Depression is a common issue that can affect an individual's mood, motivation, and overall well-being. Our therapists work with individuals to understand the underlying causes of their depression and develop strategies for managing their symptoms and improving their quality of life.

• Learning Disabilities: Learning disabilities can impact an individual's academic performance and self-esteem. We offer assessments and therapy services to help individuals understand their learning disabilities and develop strategies for success.

• Divorce and Separation: Divorce and separation can be challenging and emotionally taxing. Our therapists work with individuals to navigate the emotional aspects of these life transitions and develop strategies for moving forward.

• Life Transitions: Life transitions, such as moving, changing jobs, or experiencing a significant life event, can be challenging. Our therapists help individuals navigate these transitions and develop strategies for managing stress and uncertainty.

• Work/Life Balance: Achieving a balance between work and personal life is essential for overall well-being. Our therapists work with individuals to identify strategies for maintaining a healthy work/life balance.
