Answers before your first step

The easiest first step is to reach out: call or text, or send a note through our contact form. We'll set up a free 15-minute phone consultation to talk about what's on your mind and see if we're the right fit. There's no pressure and no commitment.

We work primarily from a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach, and we draw on additional evidence-based methods, including EMDR, DBT, and Narrative Therapy, depending on what will serve you best. Our approach is always collaborative and tailored to you.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a well-researched therapy that helps your brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their emotional charge. It's especially helpful for trauma and post-traumatic stress. Both Betsy and Levi are EMDR-trained, and we always build safety first. You set the pace.

It depends on your goals and what you're working through. Some people come for a specific season or challenge; others stay longer for deeper work. We'll check in regularly about your progress and what feels right for you.

We are both Christians, and our faith shapes the compassion and care we bring to every session. At the same time, our door is open to everyone. You do not need to share our faith to work with us. People of every background and belief are genuinely welcome here.

Only if you want it to. We follow your lead and meet you where you are. Your counseling is about your goals, your story, and what's most helpful for you.
