Assessments

UNDERSTANDING WHAT YOU'RE EXPERIENCING IS A POWERFUL FIRST STEP.

Understanding what you're experiencing is a powerful first step. We offer comprehensive mental health assessments to help clarify challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, and depression.

These evaluations are tailored to your unique situation and designed to provide insight, guide treatment planning, and support your overall well-being. When appropriate, we’re also networked with a trusted circle of professionals—including psychiatrists, neuropsychologists, and medical providers—to ensure you receive the most informed care and referrals possible.

Psychotherapy

PSYCHOTHERAPY IS MORE THAN A CONVERSATION—IT’S A SPACE FOR HEALING, GROWTH, AND MEANINGFUL CHANGE.

Each session is guided by your unique needs and goals. Whether you're facing a specific issue or simply looking for space to better understand yourself, therapy provides a supportive environment to:

  • Talk openly about what’s on your mind

  • Process difficult emotions and experiences

  • Identify patterns and behaviors that may no longer serve you

  • Learn practical tools for managing stress, relationships, and mental health

  • Cultivate resilience, clarity, and self-compassion

Our goal is to walk alongside you—not to give all the answers, but to help you ask the right questions, discover your strengths, and move forward with greater confidence and ease.

Walk & Talk Therapy

WALK AND TALK THERAPY IS PERFECT FOR THOSE WHO FEEL MORE AT EASE OUTDOORS, PREFER MOVEMENT, OR WANT AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE TRADITIONAL THERAPY SETTING.

It blends the benefits of traditional psychotherapy with the calming, grounding effects of gentle movement and time spent outdoors. Rather than meeting in an office setting, sessions take place while walking side-by-side in a natural environment—such as a park or walking trail—creating a relaxed and open atmosphere for therapeutic conversation.

THE BENEFITS

  • Encourages physical activity, which can boost mood and reduce stress

  • Supports emotional processing in a non-traditional setting

  • Promotes mindfulness through connection with nature and the present moment

  • Helps people to feel less “stuck” both physically and mentally
