Our approach goes beyond a conventional clinical setting and traditional psychoanalysis to provide a safe environment that radiates warmth and serenity.
We believe in treating the individual, not the disease, recognizing that each person’s experience is unique.
Our approach includes: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solutions Focused Therapy, Family Systems, Mindfulness-Based Skills (MBS), Brainspotting and Somatic Movement.
We understand that mental health is intricately connected to one’s environment and relationships.
Our philosophy asserts that disease and mental health challenges are not just personal struggles but collective societal responsibilities.
By treating the societal causes of disease, we strive for comprehensive healing and improvement in our client’s quality of life.
