Compasstree Counseling

At Compasstree Counseling, we understand that life is a journey filled with lessons, hardships, heartaches, joys, celebrations, and special moments that ultimately lead us to our destination, our purpose in life. The road we traverse will not always be smooth; in fact, throughout our travels, we will encounter many challenges that will test our courage, strengths, weaknesses, and faith. Along the way, we may stumble upon obstacles that lead us to peace and harmony. In order to follow our desirable path, we must overcome these obstacles.

Our Mission

At Compasstree Counseling, our team of professional counselors is dedicated to helping you identify and navigate these obstacles. We offer a variety of counseling services, including child, adult, couple, family, and group counseling in a range of settings. We meet in the office, but many of our therapists are also able to counsel by phone, online, or in your home. We also offer alternative approaches such as adults-at-play (a type of adult play therapy), wilderness therapies, yoga, acupuncture, and massage.

Our Approach

Our approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and understanding. We believe that everyone deserves a safe, accepting, and open environment to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Our therapists are trained in a variety of modalities, including Person Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, and an existential approach. We use a solution-focused rather than problem-centered approach, yielding faster and longer-lasting results.
