Our philosophy is to approach each client with authenticity and humility because we know everyone is fighting to find their best self. Everyday we sit alongside our clients and we find ways to accept life as it is, all while aiming for change that feels good and true.

Behavioral Therapy focuses on learning new strategies that help change unhelpful thoughts, feelings and actions. The goal is to reinforce desirable behaviors and decrease those that are problematic or harmful. Unlike psychoanalyisis or other process-oriented therapy, behaviorism focuses on action-based skills. Action-based skills uses goals, values, acceptance and change theories to help people find a new way of living. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, and Exposure Response Prevention are all evidence-based practices that are proven to help improve clients' quality of life by gaining a sense of control over their thoughts, feelings and actions.
