Mental Health Services:
Therapy for Anxiety & Stress
Anxiety is used to describe feelings of worry, fear, and unease. It prompts us to be alert to threats and motivates us to react. However, it can impact your mental well-being when you feel anxious every day. Sometimes it can be extremely difficult to identify what is triggering anxiety on your own.


Therapy for Addiction
Addiction is more than a physical dependence. It also affects the person emotionally, financially, and spiritually. When someone’s living with addiction, it takes a toll on everyone around them.
Therapy for Chronic Illness & Pain
Forging a new life with chronic illness can be challenging. It’s an isolating and frustrating experience. Coping with a diagnosis can impact your mind just as much as your body.


Therapy for Transitions through life
Struggles or major life changes may alter our perspective on life and our perception of reality. This can profoundly affect our mental, emotional, and social well-being.
Therapy for Trauma
Past trauma and negative experiences can have a lasting impact on physical and mental health. For many of us, gaining awareness of the ways our past impacts our physical, mental, emotional, and social wellbeing is the first step to healing.


Therapy for Military & Veterans
Our practice holds a special place in our heart for service members, military spouses and dependents. A few of our counselors are military spouses, and deeply understand the challenges and joys of living a military lifestyle.

Mental Health Matters: A Simple Guide to Supporting Employees in the Workplace
Mental health is an essential component of workplace well-being and productivity, yet it is often overlooked or minimized. According to data from Mental Health America, fewer than 20% of US workers say they feel comfortable discussing mental health issues with their manager or supervisor, despite 80% of respondents believing that their employer has some responsibility for the overall well-being of employees. Employers are starting to recognize the importance of mental health in the workplace, and they are taking measures to ensure that their employees are supported and have access to resources that can help them manage their mental health. In this blog post, we'll explore why mental health in the workplace matters, the signs that employers should look out for, and some of the ways that employers can create a supportive environment for their employees.

The Dark Side of Social Media: Constant Connection is Harming our Mental Health
In recent years, social media has become an integral part of our lives. It's a great way to stay connected with friends and family, especially if you live far away. But there's a downside to all this constant connection. When investigating the role of social media on mental health, studies have shown that too much social media can actually be harmful to our mental health, leading to increased anxiety and loneliness. For instance, the Canadian Medical Association Journal writes, "In the last decade, increasing mental distress and treatment for mental health conditions among youth in North America has paralleled a steep rise in the use of smartphones and social media by children and adolescents." Here's a closer look at the dark side of social media and how it's impacting our mental health. Anxiety and Social Media One of the biggest ways social media is harming our mental health is by causing anxiety. Constant scrolling through Facebook, Instagram, etc. can make us feel like we're not doing enough with our lives or that we're not as successful as our friends or peers. This can lead to feelings of inadequacy and anxiety. Social media can also cause us to compare ourselves to…
Mindful Living: Staying Present in a Fast-Paced World
Our lives are chaotic and busy, and we are so focused on the past and the future that we often forget to simply be in the moment. The present is happening right now, yet so many of us take it for granted and don’t appreciate the small elements of life that make it powerful and special. One of the primary reasons mindfulness is effective in combating stress is its ability to break the cycle of rumination. When we practice mindfulness, we learn to detach from repetitive and negative thought patterns that contribute to stress and anxiety. Instead of getting entangled in a spiral of worries and regrets, we develop the capacity to focus on the current moment and accept it for what it is, without dwelling on what has already happened or what might happen next. You can train yourself to stop and be in the moment, finding inner peace and tranquility just by following a few simple guidelines. Focus entirely on a specific action In our fast-paced and multitasking-driven world, taking a moment to focus on a specific task may seem counterintuitive at first. However, this simple practice of mindfulness can have profound effects on our overall well-being and…
Anxiety Beyond Textbook Symptoms: Understanding and Coping with Real-Life Experiences
Are you tired of reading about anxiety in a clinical and detached way? Let's have a real conversation about it - one that takes into account the messy, unpredictable, and often hidden aspects of this common condition. Anxiety is an experience. It is the feeling that something bad may happen and that there's nothing you can do to stop it. It's a sense of helplessness in the face of uncertainty. These feelings are perfectly normal reactions to events in our lives, but they can also be magnified by anxiety disorders. While the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual 5 (DSM5) may provide definitions and criteria, it's time to explore this through the lens of relatability and everyday experiences. Understanding Anxiety's Many Faces Anxiety doesn't always fit neatly into textbook symptoms. It can manifest in a variety of ways, and understanding these nuanced experiences is crucial in supporting those who are affected or deciding what steps to take to help yourself. Let's delve into some real-life examples to shed light on how anxiety can present itself and why it can create such distress: 1.
