We strive to create a culture of gentleness and calmness where people feel acceptance while they achieve the personal growth they are seeking. We intentionally create our environment to be calming and welcoming. Many people comment on how peaceful they feel just being here. Our intentions are to calm where there is chaos, create hope where there is hopelessness, offer understanding where there is fear and confusion, and liveliness where there is boredom.

We understand a healthy connection between a client and therapist is essential. On this website, please view the therapists who practice here under the "associates" tab to give you an idea of who we are and areas of focus. Our team of therapists include Licensed Psychologists, Masters Level Social Workers, Licensed Professional Counselors, a Life Coach, and an Emotion Code Practitioner.

We are a true team with a foundation of trust. We support and learn from each other as we share in a mission to help others in our communities which then affects the world.
