Therapy should always have an end point.

We never want therapy to be just a constantly ongoing process, with no end in sight. That’s not fair to you, and it’s not fair to the clients we have on our waitlist who are ready to get in.

We need to be clear about our therapy goals.

We need to reach them. There will always be ups and downs, but we want to know, as your therapists, that we’ve made significant progress, that we’ve built up your resiliency, and that you feel ready to take on the challenges that might be headed your way.

Every person has their own needs - and we want to meet them before you wrap up therapy.
