Individual Therapy
Individual therapy focuses on exploring & developing a better understanding of your thoughts, feelings, reactions, relationships, goals, strengths & needs.
​
Through individual therapy, you will be able to discover what motivates you as well as identifying patterns that may be holding you back.
Although change can be difficult, growth requires taking risks; why not take a risk on yourself and see what you can create in your life?
If nothing changes... nothing changes!
Couples Therapy &
Marriage Counseling
Romantic relationships are wonderful when you're feeling connected and valued by your partner.
However, when there is distance, lack of trust, resentment, anger, unresolved conflict, infidelity, or addiction, relationships be very painful.
Fortunately, marriage counseling and couples therapy can help, even if both parties don't attend or wish to. Studies show that the earlier you start couples therapy, the better chance you have of improving your relationship!
Family Therapy
Families come in many shapes and sizes and can be a wonderful source of support, stability, and love. That said, every family faces challenges and painful experiences.
Family therapy can address: parenting, co-parenting, divorce, separation, re-marriage, extended and step-families, conflict between family members, grief and loss, and teen behavior issues.
It's important to know that when one member is struggling, the whole family is impacted. Family therapy can help and may make you stronger or bring you closer together!
