Trauma Informed
A trauma-informed agency means that we realize the wide-spread impact of trauma and understand the potential paths for recovery. We recognize the signs and symptoms of trauma in our clients, families of our clients and the staff providing services. We respond by fully integrating the knowledge about trauma into our policies, procedures and practices, and we seek to activity avoid re-traumatization in our efforts to promote treatment to both those we serve including vicarious trauma to those providing the delivery of service.
Are you a Christian counseling agency?
We are an agency who believes in the restorative power of the Bible. If you are seeking Biblical counseling, we have many therapists who are skilled and trained in incorporating God's Word, faith, and prayer with traditional therapy.
How do I make an appointment?
You will first need to fill out an intake form. We will review your insurance coverage so we can discuss your responsible costs, then match you with a therapist based on your area of need.
Do you offer online counseling, or e-therapy?
Yes, absolutely, and there's no additional cost! We undrestand that it's not always feasible for you to meet with your therapist in person. Online counseling is a great option for some. We use a secure, HIPPA-compliant video conference service.

What if I don't have insurance?
If you don’t have insurance but may quality for Medicaid, we encourage you to start there first. If your income exceeds that of Medicaid eligibility, we have options.
Our standard cash rates for services are $160 for an intake assessment and $120 for ongoing 60-minute psychotherapy sessions. If this amount is too high, you can speak with your therapist about an adjusted rate for services. Because we are a private practice, this is a conversation best had with your assigned therapist.
