At Harbor Counseling, we understand change can be challenging, difficult, and scary. We also believe you have the inherent wisdom to heal yourself and achieve your goals with guidance from our experienced clinicians. Harbor Counseling is a small group practice. Currently we currently have four clinicians. Our plan is to continue to grow in order to provide more variety and specializations that will better support those that we work with.

Harbor Counseling was formed as a group practice because we felt it would be more beneficial to our clients. One of the benefits of receiving care at a group practice is a greater continuity of care. For example, a substitute counselor can step in to provide support when a client's regular counselor is not available. Another benefit is that we are able to keep our costs lower by pooling resources.

This reduces overhead allowing more funds to be devoted to training and development. More training benefits everyone. As previously mentioned a group practice enables us to offer multiple specializations in one location.

The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is an innovative intervention developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, that can be used along with other therapeutic interventions to reduce anxiety, depression, irritability, anger, stress, emotional dysregulation, PTSD symptoms.
SSP is also helpful in reducing hearing sensitivities, disorganization and difficulties with focus and attention.
The intervention uses music to strengthen the inner ear muscles.
By strengthening muscles of the inner ear individuals are better able to tune out low frequency sounds and tune into higher frequency sounds.
