Our Approach

We believe that therapy isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. That's why we take a collaborative approach, tailoring our sessions to your specific needs and goals. Our therapists draw from various therapeutic modalities, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, to create a personalized experience.

Our couples and family therapy is guided by the following values:

• Empathy: We strive to understand and validate each person's perspective.
• Collaboration: We work together as a team to identify goals and develop solutions.
• Respect: We honor each individual's experiences and beliefs.
• Non-judgment: We create a safe and accepting space for open and honest communication.

What to Expect in Therapy

• First Session: The first session typically involves gathering information about your concerns, history, and goals for therapy.
• Ongoing Sessions: Ongoing sessions focus on exploring your relationship dynamics, developing communication skills, and working towards your identified goals.
• Duration of Therapy: The duration of therapy varies depending on your specific needs and goals.
