We provide a safe and confidential atmosphere for clients to discuss the problems they are facing. Therapy always begins is an assessment of the clients current problems. In therapy we work on identifying what particular behaviors cause problems, exactly what types of situations, thoughts, feelings, and other circumstances lead to those problems and what new behaviors or skills can be used to prevent the problems from re-occurring. A holistic treatment plan is developed which takes into account all of the influential elements in a person's life Therapy involves a mindfulness-based treatment approach that gives clients a new way of approaching life and the problems that they face. Rather than acting automatically, or out of habit, clients will learn to respond more effectively to the challenges that life presents.
Eating Disorders - Treatment for anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder is challenging and getting the right help can make the difference between getting better or struggling with what can be a life threatening illness.
