Seeking therapy is a huge step and a wonderful choice to make to invest in your self-care! Believe it or not, you DESERVE this one-on-one time, no matter what your circumstances are. We hear it quite often from clients that they feel ashamed or guilty about seeking therapeutic help because they may be comparing their problems to others, and believe their problems "aren't big enough" to warrant this kind of help.
Families look very different these days! You may have what you believe to be a traditional family or you may have a more complicated "blended" family of step-children, half-siblings, foster children, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, grandparents, cousins, and anything in-between.
We can help with families adjusting to new transitions and roles, such as learning how to shift your role as a parent to a now adult child; boundaries and getting along with new in-laws; co-parenting from separate homes with an ex; grandparents raising their grandchildren; and supporting LGBTQ family members in their unique journeys.What can you expect?:

Relationships are hard! You need a strong sense of emotional security in a healthy relationship, and sometimes that takes a little (or a lot) of work. Let us help you to try and define new relationship goals and work it out. Couples counseling can help you work on identifying barriers to your happiness as a couple and develop more effective communication strategies to advocate for your wants and needs- and hopefully get results!
Art therapy gives therapeutic space for emotional expression in a visual format. Within the therapy session, creative expression is used to support physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Talking can sometimes feel limiting or completely impossible when faced with challenging emotions. Art therapy goes beyond talking, providing a space to safely explore emotions in an alternative fashion.
