Introduction

It takes courage to seek support. As you explore therapy as an option, it is important for you to know how your care will be approached. Here, we place an emphasis on supporting clients in determining what type of care they are looking for. Therapy can include learning skills, techniques, and information to manage and cope with symptoms, while also receiving support. Some make the choice to go deeper, finding the root of their symptoms so that they can do the work required to heal. Each person is offered the options and information needed so that they can determine their path and set a course for their own healing.
