We understand that life is not easy, and that individuals and families are facing greater stress than ever. These stressors, combined with our genetics, and family experiences, can leave us vulnerable to symptoms of Depression and Anxiety, as well as relationship and parenting struggles. Our team of experts is here to help you when you need it. No waiting, flexible scheduling, and individualized approaches.

Trauma

To be alive, is to have experienced trauma. The reality is we all have trauma. The impact of the trauma on our minds and bodies depends greatly on the nature, severity, and duration of the traumatic experiences, as well as our genetic make-up and our early childhood experiences with primary caregivers. Our clinicians are trauma-informed and will help you learn about trauma, and how it affects you. Research shows that Trauma Survivors often experience bodily symptoms and not memories. These bodily symptoms lead people to use alcohol or drugs to cope, and they can also predispose people to a variety of mental health and relationship challenges.

Individual therapy is a process through which clients work one-on-one with a trained mental health therapist in a safe, caring, confidential and healing environment.
