Services

Individual Counseling

• Talk Therapy
  An in-person meeting with a trained clinical counselor in a confidential, safe, and empathetic environment.  In these sessions, the counselor and client will explore thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and beliefs.  You will gain skills and insight to utilize in your life. Together, we will determine what is keeping you from being the person you want to be.  In this process, we will identify aspects of your life that no longer provide you happiness and will work together to create the life you envision and deserve. 
  55-minute session is $130; 85-minute session is $195

• EMDR
  Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) has been extensively researched and proven to be the gold standard for treating trauma. It gets to the root of the problem, and often works faster than regular talk therapy. Research has shown that when recalling traumatic events the verbal area of the brain does not activate. This is why talk therapy can take a long time to resolve trauma. EMDR will focus on your memories, feelings, body sensations, thoughts and beliefs while using eye movement to process faster. It was designed to alleviate the distress associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but has since been found to also be effective in treating anxiety, depression, phobias, addiction, grief, relationship issues, and physical pain. EMDR will focus on your past, present and prepare you for your future.   
  Initial intake 85-minute session is $195; subsequent 55-minute session is $130;

Couples Counseling
The counselor becomes an advocate for your relationship.  We will focus on changing patterns that damage the relationship and develop skills to help both partners communicate in an effective way.  We will explore what needs are not being met and discuss motivations to meet these needs. In counseling, we will also process any previous trauma the couple has been through to help heal the hurt from the past and rebuild trust in your partner.  Lastly, if applicable we work on reigniting the spark in your relationship.
55-minute session is $130; 85-minute session is $195​ (Ideal for first session)
