All of us experience the feeling of being stuck in some way, perhaps frustrated by challenging life circumstances, discouraged by unfulfilling relationships or just generally stirred up by the vague sense that something is just not working.

We often define ourselves by our relationships: mother, daughter, brother, father, son and often by the quality of those primary connections. When an important relationship encounters challenges, whether through separation, estrangement, alienation, loss and/or time, we can feel confused and hurt. Let's work together to heal those relationships and repair the connections, to feel complete and whole and develop our own identity with love and understanding.

Today's children are faced with many pressures. Kids worry about lots of things-from being accepted by their peers and parents to worrying about academic pressures, ADHD, divorce, crime, drugs and illness.
We understand these issues must be treated with great sensitivity-especially when working with children and adolescents. And that it is important that the therapeutic process be a positive experience in which young people feel safe and nurtured. Our goal is to help young people trust this process and understand that we're on "their team" as we help them successfully manage their world.
