Our therapists have very similar interests but specialize in working with different age groups and presenting concerns. This allows us to work closely as a team to create the best possible care for our clients. We often treat multiple members of a family together, as we find it’s most helpful to address concerns from multiple perspectives. The treatment team meets weekly to discuss cases and treatment. We are  always bouncing ideas off one another, creating and running groups together and growing as clinicians. Although we have similar expertise, we each take slightly different approaches. We do our best to match each client with a therapist that will be the right fit!
