Take the First Step

Who We Help

Children

Does your child struggle with anxiety, anger outbursts, or defiance? Have they experienced trauma, or been diagnosed with ADHD, ADD, autism, or another disorder?

We help kids who are struggling with explosive anger, worries, Sensory Processing Disorder, foster care and adoption, trauma/attachment, abuse and neglect.

Parents

Parenting is hard! Parenting a child with behavior or emotional problems is even harder.

You do the best you can with the knowledge and resources you have; but when you have reached your limit, you call for help.

That’s where we come in. We believe that working with children is a collaborative effort. We will work together to determine goals and a course of treatment that works best for you and your child. After all, you are the expert on your family.

Individuals

Are you looking for support or feeling alone? Do you have disturbing thoughts or memories that are troubling you?

Our services can provide you with the support you need to get through difficult times. We believe in a person-centered and goal-oriented approach to help individuals determine their needs and provide tools to meet those needs.

Families

Families can be challenging and stressful. Sometimes you need help navigating through these challenges and stressors.

We can offer guidance through these challenges and help you improve your family’s ability to maintain cohesion as a family. Our services can help address the needs of the family as a whole and provide tools to becoming a resilient family.

Couples/Marriage

Are you struggling with communication issues, negativity, or conflicts within your relationship or marriage?

It takes a lot of effort to maintain a healthy relationship or marriage. We can help you rekindle your connection by helping you understand each other’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as it relates to yourself and each other.

Community

We have a passion for supporting parents and the local and regional community on issues related to children’s mental health. We can provide expertise on topics such as play therapy, child therapy, trauma, attachment, and autism.

If you are interested in hosting us as a speaker at your next event, please contact us.
