While groups are facilitated by a therapist, the group members give and receive support from one another.
Some Areas for Group Formation:

Do you wish you had more of a sense of community in your life, instead of feeling alone? Group therapy can help you find a sense of community with others who are going through similar struggles. Come receive support and guidance from others who understand.
Group therapy’s effectiveness lies in its ability to help you find connections with other people and their experiences. These therapist-guided sessions will help you learn more about yourself and how to improve the way you feel while feeling supported from others who understand your experience.
Call to see if a group is open and looking for another member or get on the list for one that's being formed or suggest a group you could benefit from & let’s begin forming one today. Group therapy could be the solution you’ve been seeking.

EMDR Therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an interactive psychotherapeutic technique found to be very helpful in enabling clients to heal from symptoms and emotional distress brought on from a variety of life experiences.
When individuals experience a stressful or traumatic event, an interference can occur with the way the brain processes information. When a memory or experience gets “stuck” in the brain, a person may become vulnerable to conscious or unconscious triggers from recollections, images, sounds, smells, and feelings that are reminiscent of the experience.
The goal of EMDR treatment is to shift the way the brain has negatively stored experiences and reduce or eliminate the distress caused by the symptoms. EMDR therapy uses bilateral hemispheric brain stimulation in the form of left to right eye movements, hand-held pulsating devices, headphones, or tapping to reduce or remove the emotional charges left after experiencing a stressful or traumatic event. EMDR therapy activates mechanisms in the brain that help process the memories and emotions it evokes.
When EMDR is effective, a person who undergoes it comes to understand, both consciously in their mind and unconsciously in the physical functioning of their brain, that the event is in the past and no longer a threat. This means a reduction in symptoms, a shift from a negative self-belief to a neutral or more positive one, and the possibility of improved occupational, social, and relational functioning as well as a greater quality of life.
Telehealth/Online Therapy
Do you need support, but can’t make it to an in-person appointment? Are you a busy stay-at-home or working parent, and don’t have the time to drive across town for an appointment?
Do you live in a more rural area, or maybe you prefer to just do things Virtually?
If so, we can help you through virtual therapy/telehealth.
Telehealth allows us to provide counseling and therapy to our clients via live video conferencing. This can be done anywhere you have a computer or smartphone.
Telehealth appointments can be very beneficial if getting to a traditional in-person appointment is not convenient, or you simply just don’t want to.
Our telehealth solution allows you to schedule an appointment and have the entire therapy session take place digitally. To learn more and get started with virtual therapy, please contact us today.
