Mental Health Services

We are aware that no two individuals share the same walk of life. There are unique childhood experiences, family dynamics and interpersonal relationships, multicultural and religious differences, trauma/stressors, in addition to many others that make your life exclusive to you. We know that therapy is never a one size fits all, and our approaches reflect personalized plans to address all mental health related issues.

While our clinicians utilize a variety of modalities and therapeutic focuses, one lesson frequently used with our younger clients stands consistent for all of us, regardless of age or presenting problem. “The emotional backpack” illustrates the weight of what we carry on an everyday basis. Just like a normal backpack or bag, we put things in as the days and weeks go on, but it would be extremely uncomfortable to continue carrying it without taking some items out. It would simply be too heavy. This stands consistent with our emotions. Day by day and year by year, more and more experiences lead to us carrying more and more emotions. Could you imagine going to sleep comfortably wearing a bag that weighs 30 pounds? Neither can we, which is why we want to help you take the weight out.
