About Us
Why we do what we do.
All of us strive for the greatest quality of life that we can attain, especially for our loved ones. We all want to be well-functioning, responsible, and independent. Ultimately, we want happiness, health and peace for ourselves, our families and community. When our loved ones (no matter the age) are sad, anxious, or confused, it not only affects them, it affects the entire family and threatens the dreams we have for the future. Our incessant thoughts of how we can make things right begin to interfere with sleep, work, and social life. Through respectful questioning, consideration of culture, and family engagement, our practice provides expert assessment and treatment of mental health conditions. Whether the issue is an acute episode of depression or dealing with confused thoughts or perceptions, our focus is on improved functioning and quality of life. Our work emphasizes values-based decision-making and action-oriented strategies to restore mental health, foster positive interactions and nurture peace.
Our Services
Therapy for Depression
Clinical depression is more than the blues alluded to by Billie Holliday. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, nearly one in ten women and 20% of adolescent females suffer from depression compared to 5.3% of adult males and 6.8% of male youth. Depression may be experienced as a lack of interest in engaging in normal activities, isolation and low energy. Our therapy services help you to learn strategies for addressing the thoughts and behaviors that contribute to low mood. You will begin to identify your unique patterns for more adaptive responding and fulfilling interactions.
