Counseling can help you build resilience, strengthen relationships, and develop healthy coping skills.

Conditions We Help With
You don’t need to wait for a crisis to seek help. Our behavioral health team provides diagnostic assessments, counseling, and therapy services for a wide range of mental health concerns and emotional challenges, including:
- Anxiety, depression, and mood disorders
- Stress, burnout, and sleep issues
- Grief, loss, and major life transitions
- Relationship or family conflict
- Parenting or caregiving stress
- Trauma recovery and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)
- Low self-esteem and negative thought patterns
- Emotional impacts of chronic illness or ongoing pain
- Mental health changes related to aging, including perimenopause or menopause
- Adjustment challenges, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress
- Support for neurodiverse individuals, including those with ADHD and autism
What to Expect
Your mental and emotional well-being plays a key role in your physical health. That’s why caring for both, together, can lead to better sleep, improved focus, stronger relationships, and greater overall well-being. We offer both short-term and ongoing support tailored to your needs.
Therapy is a collaborative process. During your first session, your provider will learn about your goals, concerns, and personal history. Sessions are confidential and tailored to your comfort level. Our mental health practitioners aim to create a safe, supportive, and focused environment that’s centered on your individual path forward.
Matching You With the Right Counselor
When you begin services with us, you’ll complete a straightforward intake form. This helps us understand your concerns, preferences, and what matters most to you. Based on this information, our team thoughtfully matches you with the counselor whose experience and therapeutic approach best align with your needs—so you can start working with someone who’s a strong fit from the very first session.
🔒 Your Privacy Is Our Priority
We understand that seeking counseling in a smaller community can feel personal. That’s why we’re committed to confidentiality at every step. You’ll check in at the front desk like any other clinic visit, and your counseling records are securely stored in our electronic medical record (EMR) system.
Take the First Step Toward Better Mental Health
