Our Approach


Our group of professional therapists, interns, and trainees operate our Counseling Center, helping individuals, couples, and families with a broad range of therapeutic issues.  Our Psychotherapists will assess your individual needs, be interactive, and offer both short -term and long- term treatment.


Present day problems, such as depression, coping with job stress, anxiety, or the continuing effects of past child abuse, can have an impact on your relationships and your overall well being.

We offer services to help reduce the symptoms of anxiety, such as feelings of nervousness and worry, and to alleviate the stress caused by panic attacks, social anxiety, and fears.  We also treat depression, sadness, loneliness, and postpartum difficulties.


Our therapists specialize in relationship issues, including divorce and its impact on the individual and the family.  Our Marriage and Family counselors are sensitive to and aware of marital and couples issues, including communication problems, trust issues, and behavioral difficulties. We help individuals, couples and families learn new techniques for problem solving and symptom relief.  Premarital counseling, and counseling for same sex partners are also provided.

Our therapists will help you, or you and your significant other, learn new techniques for problem solving and symptom relief.

Job stress and feelings of “burn out” or dissatisfaction can affect an individual and their relationships. Job stress, heightened anxiety and depression can become intertwined, leading to a sense of hopelessness and increasing frustration.  Job displacement can place new stresses on an individual and their family.  Job loss may harm an individual’s self-esteem and confidence.  We can help you with stress management techniques and together explore other options for coping or changing the direction of your life.


Therapy can also be effective for alleviating symptoms stemming from childhood abuse such as nightmares, feelings of being lost and empty, post traumatic stress disorder, anger and guilt.
