Our Services

Many families experience relational ruptures and attachment breeches associated with life transitions, and painful and traumatic circumstances: marriage, blended families, divorce, grief/loss, trauma, displacement, abandonment, neglect, abuse, tween and teens, empty nest, etc. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger following major life transitions. We can help you navigate these life transitions and guide you through the process of grief and healing. 

Depression, anxiety, grief, fear, and hopelessness are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Through group counseling and treatment, you recognize that you are not alone, and can develop tools to navigate the challenges you face.  Through our groups, we are able to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy to support your next steps in self-actualization. 

Many parents feel isolated as they navigate various stages of their children's development. Especially when parenting children with special needs, behavioral and/or mental health issues. We offer support groups so parents can share with others their experiences associated with painful and traumatic circumstances.
