A B O U T U S

Because we work as a team, we are often able to provide multiple services to our clients. For example,
we often are able to provide therapists for both members of a partnership and a separate therapist for
the couples therapy. In the family setting we can often provide different therapists for each child and
parent, and also provide a separate therapist for the family as a whole. This collaboration allows for a
high degree of continuity of care and often leads to increased positive outcomes.
