What Sets Our Team Apart?

What sets our team apart is that we have devoted our lives and careers to learning and supporting the adolescent population.  We specialize in ages 11 through 28 and participate in ongoing training, consultation, and supervision with this population at the forefront of all of our education and efforts. 

Over the years, we have refined our treatment protocols to develop a proven method that blends evidence-based practices (that are backed in research) with creative methods so that we can connect with teens and help them learn to express themselves, while also teaching them the skills that they need to see positive outcomes in a structured therapeutic session.  

By combining science with art and holistic approaches, we create connections and foster acceptance. We are the solution when talk therapy doesn’t work!  

Many therapists hold a “safe space” for clients to come in weekly and unload stressors or vent.  This can be helpful for some, but can also create a dependency on therapy as the way to cope with life stressors. It can “feel good” to vent, but this doesn’t help clients learn the skills necessary for long-lasting change. 

We believe that the goal of therapy is not to depend on therapy to be well. The goal isn’t to be IN therapy, but to learn how to effectively and skillfully manage life’s ups and downs outside the context of a therapy session.
