So often we go through experiences that change us forever, sometimes without even realizing it. Sometimes it leads us into a place in life, or a way of living, that leaves us wondering, "How did I get here? And how to I get back?" A large part of changing your life, is understanding it. We can help.
Therapy can lead to improvement in all areas of life. If you feel like something is holding you back from living life as you envision it, therapy can help you address this. When you aren’t sure what’s keeping you from making change, therapy can help you discover the answer.
Some common symptoms and signs that seeing a therapist could be beneficial include feeling overwhelmed and stressed, chronic fatigue, disproportionate rage or anger, feeling afraid to leave your home, experiencing anxious or intrusive thoughts, a loss of interest in usual activities, hopelessness, and social withdrawal.
There is no right or wrong reason to get therapy. Whether you have specific symptoms you'd like help with, or a general discontentedness with your life in it's present state, our therapists are here to listen and assist you in getting to where you want to be.

Untreated issues often get worse and may have other negative effects. Perhaps you have experienced this already?
Unlike medication, therapy teaches skills that last a lifetime which means even if therapy is no longer needed, your symptoms can continue to improve!
So you have decided to give therapy a try. Great! You have sent us your information through the "Let's Begin" link which has allowed our Client Care Coordinator to match you with one of our therapists. You have been contacted to schedule your first appointment. What is it going to be like?
After checking in at the front desk, you'll be able to get a cup of tea, coffee, or water and sit in our comfortable waiting room. Your therapist will come out to greet you and welcome you into a room with... you guessed it... couches. There is no right or wrong choice here, so choose whichever one you're drawn to and have a seat.
This first session will be primarily for getting to know one another so feel free to ask whatever questions you have, or if you're feeling a bit shy and awkward, allow your therapist to break the ice. No one is expecting you to jump right into your deepest darkest secrets... though if you would like to get right into it, you can bet your therapist is ready and willing to go there with you.
The rest of your sessions, as with the first, will be aimed at supporting you with whatever you may need for that session. However, often we have no idea where to start or where to go from wherever it is we are at. That is more than okay as well. Your therapist will always have an idea of where to go next.
