We’ll figure out what’s right for you.
Art Therapy
Art therapy is a way to explore your inner world through creativity—no art skills needed. It's not about making something "good," but about using the process to uncover emotions, patterns, and insights that can support healing and growth.
“Art therapy helped my kid to express himself. He’s more relaxed and feeling less anxious now.”
Talk Therapy
Talk therapy offers a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences.
Through conversation, we'll work together to understand what's going on beneath the surface and help you move toward clarity, relief, and meaningful change.
“She supported me through my spouse’s illness and after their passing. I don’t know how I would’ve coped without her.”
CPT
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a proven treatment for people healing from trauma— including sexual assault, sudden loss, or natural disasters. Over about 12 sessions, CPT helps you understand how trauma has affected your thoughts and gives you tools to shift painful, unhelpful beliefs—so you can feel more grounded, empowered, and in control.
“CPT honestly changed my life. I went in feeling stuck and overwhelmed. It helped me understand my trauma in a way that made healing actually feel possible.”
