Therapy services

Our team supports clients dealing with anxiety, depression, panic, and emotional dysregulation using CBT and DBT. We help individuals learn to recognize unhelpful thinking patterns, regulate intense emotions, and build healthier behaviors. Our structured, skills-based approach empowers clients to reduce symptoms, build resilience, and regain a sense of control in their lives.

We provide specialized treatment for eating disorders including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). We use Family-Based Treatment (FBT) to engage families as active partners in their child’s recovery, especially in early stages of illness. For older adolescents and adults, we also offer CBT-E, a highly effective, individualized treatment designed to address the underlying thoughts and behaviors that maintain the eating disorder.

We offer uniquely personal guidance and proven, accessible tools to help patients navigate big changes with greater clarity and confidence.

We offer guidance and support to parents navigating the emotional and behavioral challenges of childhood and adolescence. Using CBT and DBT-informed strategies, we help parents respond more effectively to emotional outbursts, rigid thinking, or risky behaviors.

We work with schools, learning specialists, and other professionals to provide insight into a child or adolescent’s emotional and behavioral functioning. Our team offers observations, collaborative planning, and therapeutic recommendations that align with school and family goals.
