We support individuals navigating substance addiction, technology and internet addiction, and co-occurring mental health concerns.

With experience across all ASAM levels of care, our therapists provide judgment-free treatment for alcohol and drug use, process addictions, and behavioral addictions—while also addressing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and stress that often accompany addiction.

Our agency has multiple providers who offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and a range of trauma-informed therapeutic services designed to support individuals in safely processing and integrating overwhelming or distressing experiences.

EMDR is an evidence-based approach that uses bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements or tapping—to help the brain reprocess traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Our clinicians are trained to adapt EMDR and other trauma-focused interventions to each client's developmental level, communication style, and sensory needs, creating a supportive and regulated environment throughout the healing process. In addition to EMDR, we offer trauma-informed psychotherapy, grounding and stabilization strategies, somatic-based interventions, and attachment-focused therapies that honor the impact of trauma on the brain, body, and relationships.

Together, these services empower individuals to build resilience, improve emotional regulation, and move forward with a greater sense of safety and wellbeing.

Play-based therapy services provide children with a developmentally appropriate and emotionally safe way to express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences when words may be difficult to access.

Through guided play, therapists observe themes, support emotional regulation, and help children build problem-solving and relational skills in a natural, engaging environment. Sand tray play, a specialized form of play therapy, offers a tactile and symbolic medium where children can create scenes using sand and miniature figures. This process allows them to externalize internal experiences, process trauma or stress, and explore new coping strategies with the support of a trained clinician. By integrating play-based modalities—including sand tray—therapists create a therapeutic space that fosters creativity, attachment, and healing while honoring each child's unique developmental needs.

Our therapists are certified to assess and treat eating disorders across the lifespan.

We address underlying emotional patterns, body image concerns, and co-occurring issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, and lifestyle barriers—helping clients find peace, acceptance, and a healthier relationship with food and self.

We serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who also experience co-occurring mental health and/or substance use concerns.

Our services recognize the importance of a comprehensive, whole-person approach grounded in the biopsychosocial model. This framework guides our providers in understanding how biological factors, developmental differences, environmental influences, trauma histories, and social supports interact to shape a person's symptoms and strengths. Clinicians within the agency receive specialized training in clinical assessment tailored to IDD, including recognizing diagnostic overshadowing and collaborating closely with medical providers to ensure thorough medical evaluations that may uncover contributing conditions. Services integrate Positive Behavior Support to promote skill development and reduce challenging behaviors through proactive, person-centered strategies. Psychotherapy and other therapeutic interventions are adapted to each individual's communication style, learning needs, and sensory profile, while psychopharmacological treatment is carefully coordinated to support emotional regulation, safety, and overall wellbeing. Through this integrated and specialized approach, the agency strives to honor each person's unique story while empowering them to achieve meaningful progress and improved quality of life.

We offer a variety of therapy groups and supportive spaces designed to help you feel more connected, understood, and supported. Our groups focus on shared experiences, personal growth, and meaningful conversations in a welcoming, low-pressure environment. Current offerings include book clubs, creative art-focused groups, and connection-focused programs like our pen pal group program, with additional groups and workshops launching throughout the year. Whether you’re looking to build community, learn new skills, or explore personal growth alongside others, our groups provide a supportive and engaging way to do so.

We help parents, caregivers, couples, and families strengthen communication, resolve conflict, and navigate the unique challenges of raising children with behavioral or developmental needs.

Our therapists also work with couples and partners facing stress, life transitions, or relational challenges. With deep experience supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, we provide neurodiversity-affirming evaluations and therapy. We help parents and caregivers navigate behavioral challenges, emotional regulation, and support needs—creating plans that honor each person's strengths and abilities.

Our agency has providers who provide specialized services for parents of adopted children as well as children who have been adopted or are currently within the foster care system, supported by clinicians with advanced training and certification in adoption-competent and trauma-informed care.

Our team understands the complex emotional, developmental, and identity-related experiences that can accompany adoption and foster care, including attachment challenges, grief and loss, trauma histories, and navigating birth family connections. We offer therapeutic support that strengthens attachment, enhances communication, and equips parents with tools to respond to trauma-related behaviors with sensitivity and consistency. For children and youth, interventions are tailored to their developmental needs and provide a safe space to explore feelings, build trust, and develop healthy coping strategies. Through this specialized approach, our agency strives to promote stability, resilience, and healing for both caregivers and the children they support.

For clients seeking whole-person healing, we incorporate holistic health approaches, lifestyle improvement, mindfulness, and strengths-based strategies.

We support individuals exploring identity, spirituality, purpose, and wellness practices that align with their values and goals.

Linking the gap through a blend of on-site and off-site supervision creates a supportive, flexible framework for interns, newly licensed, and pre-licensed professionals.

On-site supervision offers real-time guidance, immediate feedback, and hands-on skill development, while off-site supervision expands access to specialized expertise, reflective consultation, and continuity of support regardless of location or scheduling constraints. Together, this integrated approach promotes clinical confidence, ethical decision-making, and professional growth, ensuring emerging practitioners feel both grounded in their daily work and connected to a broader supervisory network that supports competence, consistency, and long-term success in the field.

We also offer case consultation and clinical training for individuals and organizations working at the intersection of intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and mental health.

Our approach is intentionally individualized, recognizing that each client, team, and system brings unique strengths, challenges, and cultural contexts. Through collaborative consultation and tailored training, we support ethical decision-making, clinical confidence, and practical strategies that enhance outcomes for complex cases, empowering providers and organizations to deliver thoughtful, responsive, and effective care.
