Professional Counseling Services

We are a team of Licensed Mental Health Counselors with a passion for helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with compassion and expertise.

Trauma-Informed Care and Specialized Therapies

Our approach to therapy is deeply rooted in trauma-informed care. We believe in creating a safe and supportive environment where healing can flourish. Using evidence-based practices, we offer a comprehensive approach to treating trauma through therapies such as EMDR, ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), and DBT for developing essential life skills and resilience.

Attachment Theory and Internal Family Systems

We draw from attachment theory and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients explore how early experiences shape current beliefs and behaviors. Together, we work toward healing and integrating fragmented parts of the self, fostering a stronger and more resilient sense of identity.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) helps individuals develop emotional regulation, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. We offer DBT in both skills training group settings and individual therapy, creating a validating environment where clients can build coping skills and achieve their personal goals.

Christian Worldview Integration

We honor each client’s spiritual journey and offer compassionate support from a Christian worldview, creating space for growth, healing, and deeper connection to God.  We serve our greater community always whether you’re a person of faith or not. We meet our clients where they are, and we help people of all faiths or no religious faith at all.

Professional Background and Education

Our counselors hold advanced degrees and focus on continuing education to continually remain abreast of the newest and most effective therapeutic modalities.
