INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Helping adolescents and adults improve communication, reduce conflict, and build confidence
After our time together, you will leave feeling more compassionate toward both yourself and others
Adolescents
Adolescence can be a very difficult time for teenagers and their families. We’re here to help teens during this developmental phase, guiding them through their independence while providing them with the support they need to grow.
Adults
Our therapists work to provide you with the tools and clarity you need to tolerate your emotions, so you can find new ways to connect with yourself and others. Together, we’ll help you shift toward more meaningful relationships and companionship.
