Whether or not this is your first therapeutic experience, or you have tried therapy previously, it can feel daunting starting a new therapeutic journey. We will create a safe place for you to share and grow at your own pace.

Book Appointment

Therapy is different for everyone, and highly personalized.
Some things that we may be able to assist with are:

Improve Well-being

Therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone trained to help you make sense of them. It can help you identify your values and find meaning and purpose.

Enhanced Coping Skills

Build on existing coping skills or learn new skills to manage stress, anxiety and other challenges.

Self Awareness

We'll create a space to reflect—on your thoughts, feelings, reactions, and patterns—without judgment. We might gently challenge your assumptions, ask questions you might not think to ask yourself, and help you connect the dots between your past experiences and your current behavior. Over time, you start to notice your triggers, understand your needs better, and recognize why you do what you do.

Stronger Relationships

Whether it be intimate partners, family friends or colleagues, Therapy can help explore your communication style, attachment patterns, and emotional triggers. We can explore tools to express yourself more clearly, listen more deeply, set healthy boundaries, and respond rather than react.
