Services
Individual Therapy
One-on-one sessions with licensed therapists address specific mental health concerns through personalized treatment plans. Clients receive confidential support for conditions including depression, anxiety, and trauma. Our therapists employ evidence-based techniques while maintaining flexibility to adapt approaches as clients progress through recovery.
Intensive Outpatient Programs
Structured group-based programs provide enhanced care for moderate to severe symptoms. Participants engage in psychoeducation, skills training, and process groups multiple times weekly while maintaining home life. Programs incorporate mindfulness, cognitive behavioral techniques, and nutritional guidance to support comprehensive healing.
Family-Based Treatment
Specialized programs for adolescents with eating disorders involve family members in recovery. Parents receive training to support nutritional rehabilitation while therapists address underlying emotional components. This evidence-based approach maintains family involvement throughout the treatment process.
Nutrition Counseling
Registered dietitians provide personalized guidance to rebuild healthy relationships with food. Sessions combine nutritional education with emotional support to address disordered eating patterns. Clients learn balanced eating approaches that promote both physical health and mental well-being.
Trauma-Informed Care
Specialized treatment addresses trauma's impact using EMDR, sensorimotor psychotherapy, and trauma-focused CBT. Therapists create safe environments for processing traumatic experiences while developing coping strategies. Programs consider developmental trauma and its long-term effects on mental health.
