young-teens-and-adults-talking — **Our Vision**

Our vision is a community in which youth feel valued, understood, and empowered. We believe that providing mental health services and supports at the individual, family, and community level can ultimately transform lives.

Our Values

Empowering Youth Voice

We believe that all youth should have a voice and be heard. We believe in approaches that empower youth to create treatment goals, advocate for their needs, and collaborate with their families and treatment providers to find what works best for them.
Accessible, High Quality Mental Health Services

We accept and bill several insurance companies, including OHP and commercial insurance plans, so that services are affordable. We also offer a sliding scale for those that are uninsured. Our therapists have flexible appointment times that make it easier for youth and families to access services.
Respect and Equity for All

We are an LGBTQIA+ inclusive, anti-racist practice and believe in treating all people with respect and equity. We welcome our clients to be their most authentic selves where they will not be judged.
Continuous Growth

Our therapists are committed to continuous learning and personal growth. We emphasize continuing education and learning so that we are truly specialists in our field. We continue to ask ourselves “how can we do better?” and challenge one another both professionally and personally.
Community Engagement

We know that mental health issues don’t occur in a vacuum. Part of successful treatment is working with the youth, as well as the family, and having a community that supports mental health treatment and awareness. We participate in numerous community events and activities each year to help spread mental health awareness and reduce stigma around mental health, so that we are able to serve and reach more youth and families in our communities.

What We Are About

We believe that providing mental health services and supports at the individual, family, and community level can ultimately transform lives. No one wants to invest time and energy into counseling to learn new, healthy skills and then have your family or community not support you in what you are learning. When appropriate and needed, we incorporate family and group counseling into your treatment plan so that your support system can be a part of your growth and change process.
