Practice Philosophy

Experience treating children, adolescents, and their parents has convinced us that psychotherapy works.  How? Simply put, expressing aspects of our emotional world helps us connect our thoughts with our actions.  This formula can lead to understanding and change over time.  Furthering connections within ourselves bridges connections to our families, our friends and our other relationships.

Individual and group therapies can help children and adolescents resolve problems with behavior, friendships, and/or emotional issues such as:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Self-esteem
  • Attention
  • Regulation
  • Anxiety
  • Divorce
  • Grief
  • Crises
  • Family conflict
  • Parent-child conflicts

Adults may benefit from focusing on issues arising from their relationship as a couple, parenting roles, or their quest for further personal and emotional growth. Common issues addressed effectively with adult psychotherapy include:

  • Anxiety or stress
  • Parenting goals
  • Marital discord
  • Relationship or work problems
