WELCOME. OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF EXPERT CARE IN A COMFORTABLE AND SAFE SETTING.

OUR AREAS OF EXPERTISE INCLUDE:

Anxiety and Stress Reduction:
If you suffer from general nervousness, anxiety in social situations, panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, unrelenting worries, or an incapacitating phobia, you may have an anxiety disorder. Therapy teaches you how to control your anxiety levels, stop worrisome thoughts, and manage your fears.

Self-Esteem, Worth, and Identity Issues:
It’s normal to be affected to a degree by the way others treat us. However, people with low self-esteem tend to depend on others for cues that they are OK. They are more likely to be influenced by others. If someone rejects them in some way or criticizes them, they react more strongly, tend to take things more personally and are hurt more deeply. Therapy can help develop and foster self-compassion. With self-compassion, your kindness to yourself is a given. It doesn’t rely on your last extraordinary accomplishment. You don’t have to justify your existence. You are a lovable person when you have excelled, and you are the same lovable person when you encounter failures. This means you don’t need to constantly do better than others, or better than your last best, in order to feel good.

Depression: 
Sadness is a normal reaction to difficult times in life and usually passes with a little time. Sometimes, however, the persistent feeling of sadness or loss of interest that characterizes depression can  interfere with daily life and normal functioning and lead to a range of behavioral and physical symptoms. These may include changes in sleep, appetite, energy level, concentration, daily behavior, or self-esteem. Therapy has proven to be very effective for those with depression by lifting mood, modifying negative thoughts, behaviors and emotional responses, and helping to improve coping skills.

Relationship Concerns/Couples Counseling:
Relationships between people are often defined by repetitive patterns. These patterns can be positive or negative and generally go unnoticed. When issues inevitably arise the reciprocal nature of relationships can cause things to spiral out of control fast. Negative emotions build up and become catalysts for negative interactions. As the number of negative interactions increase, the worse things get. Therapy can help you identify these repetitive patterns. Once uncovered, the cycle of thoughts, feelings and behaviors sustaining your negative interactions can be consciously stopped and replaced with positive patterns of interaction. Relationship counseling typically includes both partners, but sometimes one partner chooses to work with a therapist alone. The specific treatment plan depends on the situation.
