Our Services
Individual Psychotherapy
50 min- $175 / 80 min- $240
We offer individual therapy for children, adolescents, and adults seeking support with short and long-term challenges with mental health, life stressors and well-being. Psychotherapy is an evidence-based practice which involves assessment, collaboration, treatment planning, goal setting and evaluation.
Psychotherapy begins with an Initial Assessment (80min) to discuss present concerns, relevant history, and goal setting, and is followed by 50 minute treatment sessions. The length of frequency of sessions will be discussed in your first session based on your concerns, preferences, and recommendations from your therapist.
Areas of Focus
We support clients navigating anxiety, depression, and emotional overwhelm, as well as deeper wounds like trauma, intergenerational pain, and family shame. Many of the people we work with are holding the weight of cultural expectations, people-pleasing, and the feeling of not being fully understood — even in past therapy spaces. We create space for healing around identity, self-worth, boundaries, and the complex experiences that come with being first-generation, racialized, or between cultures.

Somatic & Mindfulness-Based Approaches to bring awareness and grounding to the body, helping to regulate the nervous system and reconnect with self.
Person-Centered Therapy to offer a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where you are fully seen, accepted, and empowered to guide your own healing.

Homework and exercises may be recommended by your therapist to help achieve your intended goals.
