Right Fit:

To us, finding a therapist is like dating. We want you to connect with someone who is right for your unique needs so that you can build an authentic connection. Therapy with us involves developing a long-term relationship that helps you understand your past, take ownership of your present, and make positive strides toward your ideal future.

Expertise:

Clients describe us as “caring, sympathetic, compassionate, patient, and easy to talk to.” They also describe our therapists as “collaborators and great guides who give me the space to spill out a load of stuff I had held onto.” Finally, we commonly hear that our therapists allow our clients to “feel seen, heard, validated, supported, AND challenged in the best way possible.”

Diversity:

We pride ourselves on diversity within our staff in every area, from gender, age, religion, race, ethnicity, and languages spoken to therapeutic styles, approaches, and modalities.

HOW DO WE HELP?

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic Therapy involves understanding how our repressed memories and emotions affect our current decision-making, behavior, and relationships. Psychodynamic therapy offers insight for growth by exploring past experiences and hidden influences, helping you gain self-awareness and fresh perspectives to understand your current functioning and navigate life's new challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves identifying distortions in our thinking patterns that create problems in our lives, gaining a better understanding of our motivations for these behaviors, and then changing those mindsets and behaviors for improved life happiness. CBT equips you with the skills for change, like tools to identify and challenge negative thinking patterns.

Individualized Approaches

Each therapist brings in their unique education, experience, and background to create a therapeutic environment that is founded on trust, connection, and rapport. Your therapist shows up authentically so that you can, too, in order to actually experience change outside of the room. Your therapist will adapt their approach based on your unique needs, goals, and preferences.

Improving your relationship with yourself will improve your relationship with everyone else in your life.

Guiding Principles of Our Practice

  • Our gender, race, culture, ethnicity, religion, able-bodiedness, and various other factors interplay within the systems in which we operate, and we must address all of them as they interact.

  • We can’t change the present without understanding our past, but our past does not have to define our future.

  • We are always learning as both practitioners and supervisors, and we encourage you to pursue frank and open discussions with your therapist of how both individual identity markers and situations stemming from society at large will show up in the room during your work together.

  • There is nothing you can say to your therapist that will shock them, cause them to judge you, or make them not like you anymore.

  • The patriarchy is not an individual, but a system that harms all of us, and every one of us deserves to design our own lives free from the toxic influences of the current systems at play.

  • All approaches have been validated through research and utilize established techniques tailored to specific issues.

    Therapists adapt their approach based on the unique needs, goals, and preferences of each client to create individualized treatment plans for each client.

    Ongoing assessment and progress monitoring involves regular evaluation of progress and adjustments to the therapy plan as needed.

    The specific techniques and interventions used will differ significantly between each approach, but our therapists integrate elements from different approaches to create a personalized treatment plan for everybody.
