Psychotherapy
What is it?
Psychotherapy (professional counseling) is a therapeutic relationship that empowers diverse individuals, couples, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals. Professional Counselors work with clients on strategies to overcome obstacles and personal challenges that they are facing.
Counseling is a collaborative effort between the counselor and client. Professional counselors often: Help clients identify goals and potential solutions to problems which cause emotional turmoil, seek to improve communication and coping skills, strengthen self-esteem, and promote behavior change and optimal mental health.
All of this is primarily achieved through our HIPAA compliant telehealth platform. Telehealth therapy is the use of telecommunication technologies to provide health care services to patients remotely. This allows our clients the safety and ease of meeting with their therapist wherever/whenever best suits their individual needs.
Who is it for?
Any individual, couple, or family that might be overwhelmed by day-to-day life, or feeling stuck in patterns that make life feel unsatisfying and empty. Professional counseling is beneficial for those who might be experiencing:

Professional counseling can take on many unique forms including: Individual counseling, couples counseling, or family counseling.
Individual Psychotherapy
Individual counseling is an opportunity for adults to receive specialized support and experience growth during challenging times in life. Individual counseling can help one deal with many personal topics in life such as anger, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, marriage and relationship challenges, parenting problems, school difficulties, career changes, etc.
Therapy for Teens
Teen counseling is a form of therapy that helps adolescents deal with tough emotions and situations, mental health conditions, trauma, or concerns related to future, present, or past experiences.
Teen counseling is designed to address and treat the specific needs of clients who are going through adolescence, an important developmental phase.
The teenage years can be an exciting time, characterized by newfound exploration, healthy risk-taking, and critical-thinking skills. However, it’s also a time when adolescents face an increased risk of experiencing depression, anxiety, and other chronic conditions, alongside a wide variety of difficult life transitions as they journey through middle and high school.
Family Counseling
Family counseling is often sought due to a bigger life change or stress negatively affecting one or all areas of family closeness, family structure (rules and roles) or communication style. This mode of counseling can take a variety of forms. Sometimes it is best to see an entire family together for several sessions, while simultaneously making time for each member of the family to experience individualized counseling. Common issues addressed in family counseling are concerns around parenting, sibling conflict, divorce, loss of family members, new members entering the family, dealing with a major move, or a general change affecting the family system.
