Why Choose Us

Home-like Setting – Our therapists meet with clients in a cottage on our campus, creating a comfortable, welcoming space.

Individualized Attention – Our therapists have a small number of clients, allowing them the freedom to give more time and attention to each client.

Continuum of Care – Our programs and services expand well beyond counseling should individuals or families have additional needs.

Our Approach

  • Strengths-based Approach emphasizes the individual’s resiliency and personal strengths to overcome obstacles in their lives
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy assists with improving communication, self-awareness, emotional regulation and decision-making skills  
  • Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to assist individuals with processing traumatic experiences and provides tools to better cope with life after the negative impact of the traumatic experiences have begun to impede with day-to-day functioning
  • Client-centered Therapy is based on the belief that the client is best able to decide what to explore and how
  • Motivational Interviewing is designed to help individuals find the motivation to make a positive behavior change
