MY Promise to you...
I recognize that it requires a great deal of strength and courage to seek out help. I will seek to understand. I will provide a safe, accepting, judgment-free, and comfortable place. I will work to help you identify your strengths and build upon them.
Counseling allows individuals to better understand themselves and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. It is a personal opportunity to receive support and experience growth during challenging times. It is a key piece of the support system that will help utilize innate resilience and strengths.
We will look closely at current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that can help make decisions about whether specific thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are helping or hindering their wellbeing. Counseling is a collaborative process that involves a confidential and professional relationship that focuses on personal obstacles. We work objectively to clarify issues, gain insight into thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and to deal effectively with these obstacles in a healthy way.

play therapy
In a play therapy session, therapists utilize various toys, games, and creative activities to help children express themselves. These may include art supplies, dolls, household objects, building blocks, and role-playing scenarios. The therapist observes and interacts with the child during play to gain insights into their emotional and psychological state, helping the child process difficult experiences, build self-esteem, and develop problem-solving skills.
Play therapy can be effective for a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral problems, and social difficulties. It is suitable for children of all ages, and the techniques can be adapted to meet the individual needs of each child. By engaging in play, children can make sense of their world, learn new ways to manage their emotions, and experience healing and growth.
Psychoanalytic therapy (also known as psychodynamic) uses free flowing talk and conversation to uncover facets of personality that influence behavior. By bringing up and examining memories, triggers, early experiences, and relationships, we become more aware of how and why we make the choices we make. This therapy operates on the assumption that our lives are shaped by “subconscious” urges and desires. By understanding ourselves better, we may address unresolved problems, heal open wounds, and make more informed and intentional decisions about our lives, behaviors, and relationships.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) takes the framework of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and focuses directly on the impact of our emotions. Originally created for those diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, DBT can be utilized for any individual struggling with symptoms revolving around emotional dysfunction, impulsivity, addiction, porous personal boundaries and undercontrolled behaviors. DBT allows these individuals to create non-invasive healthy routines, build awareness of stressors, and intervene with skills dedicated to helping the client find acceptance and engage positively in everyday activity.
