wHERE YOUr HEALING JOURNEY BEGINS

Your healing journey begins at the Confidential Couch.


Every journey to healing is unique and the decision to seek counseling can be difficult.  The process of healing starts with a choice.  You are invited to sit on the couch where there is no judgment and this is when the healing process begins.  Accept the invitation to recreate your story and an opportunity to experience emotional health and your own fulfillment.

Therapy is about discovering oneself.  When we create a deeper, meaningful relationship with ourselves, we can better understand and gain awareness around our actions, thoughts and behaviors.
