Beneath the surface of your calm and competent exterior, you're suffocating. You have stomach aches every day. Your head is constantly pounding from all the sleepless nights filled with play-by-plays of your failures, racing thoughts and to-do lists that you never seem to complete- and somehow "self-care" always gets postponed until tomorrow.
The relationships you have are unfulfilling- people either ask too much of you, or ask nothing at all. You're unsure who's in your corner when you need them and as a result, you've become more and more withdrawn. You're lonely. You're depleted. You're over it. Something's gotta give. If you're here, you've already struggled to stop the constant worry, racing thoughts, unrealistic expectations, sleep trouble and people pleasing on your own.

About
Report
Our clients expect us to put in the work- and in turn, we expect the same. Because we ask a lot of our clients, they get to a place where they can rely on the skills they've learned in therapy and put strategies into action. We use evidence-based practices that target your specific area of need so you can get the most out of therapy in the least amount of time.
Therapists
Report
Our therapists each have their own unique personalities, therapeutic styles and methods of practice. Because of this, we place our clients intentionally with the therapist that will be the right fit. We also understand that you can't drink from one well and "hope" that it never dries up. When clients need more, or something different, we connect clients to other therapists within our practice.

Are you stuck? Are you struggling with a brain that's always racing? Are you excelling at work but struggling to find meaning, connection, and relaxation in your life outside work? You're not alone. In 2005, on a quest to challenge her own fears and anxieties, Ginger traveled to Thailand and found meaning.
