Individual Therapy

Current Waitlist Times for Therapy

1-2 months

Our short-term psychotherapy services are designed to support individuals in gaining insight into their behavioral patterns and interpersonal dynamics. Through a collaborative and focused approach, we apply evidence-based intervention techniques tailored to each person’s unique goals and needs. The aim is to promote meaningful change by addressing challenges that may affect daily functioning, relationships, or overall life satisfaction. 

Cognitive Assessment

Current Waitlist Times for Assessment

6-8 months

We offer assessment services for ages 6 and up. Cognitive assessments provide a comprehensive evaluation of thinking skills, including areas of strength and difficulty. This also frequently includes an evaluation of academic achievement and learning difficulties. Results are often used to inform recommendations for support in school, occupational, and home settings.
