WHO WE SERVE
Educators
Let's prioritize your well-being.
Educators are hanging on by a thread. The world of education has turned into something unimaginable. Met with restrictions, funding limitations, and growing student needs, how can you do what you love with the same passion in which you started?
Issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma are real-life experiences for education professionals, and as a fellow educator, our therapist provides individual counseling that is specific to their needs.
Brittiny combines 10+ years of experience as a school counselor with proven therapeutic techniques to create a safe space for educators, allowing them to process their experiences, evaluate their needs, and establish boundaries that can help them navigate the teaching profession.
Teens and Young Adults
We Get It.
We Can Help You Get Through It.
It’s the truth– life as a teen and young adult can be hard. There is so much happening in the world around us and trying to make sense of it all can be overwhelming.
How can you exercise, keep your grades up, work a job, volunteer, get accepted into college, and tend to your mental health when anxious thoughts are always clouding your mind? Not to mention, how do you get past those "depression slumps" when you don't feel like doing anything at all?
It can feel defeating when what's expected of you seems so out of reach, but there are methods to help you find balance and experience more happiness in your life. Our licensed therapist can show you where to start.

Symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and PTSD are often intertwined.
