Offering a breadth of mental health services with empathy and expertise

ADHD

If you or your child struggles with focus, organization, or impulsivity, we provide specialized assessment and treatment for ADHD. We offer customized treatment plans that often combine effective medication management with psychoeducation and behavioral strategies. We aim to help you manage your symptoms and maximize your potential in work, school, and relationships.

Depression

We offer comprehensive care for individuals struggling with depression and mood disorders. Our approach includes a thorough diagnostic assessment, targeted medication management (when appropriate), and supportive psychotherapy to help you regain energy, interest, and joy in your life. Our goal is to stabilize your mood and build lasting strategies for emotional resilience.

CBT and DBT Therapies

We integrate focused, evidence-based psychotherapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills. CBT helps you identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, while DBT skills focus on mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These practical tools can help you manage intense emotions and navigate life's challenges more effectively.

Individual and Group Counseling

We offer flexible counseling options to suit your needs. Individual counseling provides a confidential space for deep, one-on-one therapeutic work. Group counseling offers a supportive, peer-based environment where you can connect with others, learn new coping skills, and gain diverse perspectives in a structured setting. Both formats are designed to promote personal growth and emotional healing.
