What We Treat

Plain-language explanations of the concerns we help with — and a short example of what each can look like in everyday life.

Anxiety

Worry or fear that feels bigger than the situation and hard to turn off, often showing up as tension, restlessness, or trouble relaxing.

For example, you might lie awake replaying tomorrow’s meeting, or feel your heart race in situations that used to feel manageable.

Depression

A lasting low mood or loss of interest in things you usually care about, which can drain energy and make daily tasks feel heavier than they should.

For example, getting out of bed, answering texts, or enjoying hobbies may take far more effort than they used to.

ADHD

Ongoing difficulty focusing, organizing, or managing impulses and activity level in ways that get in the way of school, work, or home life.

For example, you may start many tasks but finish few, miss details in conversations, or feel restless even when you want to sit still.

Trauma & PTSD

Distress that continues after a frightening or overwhelming experience, sometimes including vivid memories, feeling “on edge,” or avoiding reminders of what happened.

For example, a loud sound, a certain place, or a news story may suddenly bring back the same fear or body reaction as the original event.

OCD

Unwanted thoughts that keep returning, paired with urges to do certain actions or mental rituals to feel safer or “right” — even when you know it takes a lot of time.

For example, you might check the stove repeatedly before leaving, or feel unable to stop a thought loop until you complete a specific routine.

Personality Disorders

Long-standing patterns of relating to yourself and others that create repeated conflict, emotional intensity, or difficulty keeping stable relationships.

For example, relationships may swing quickly between closeness and rupture, or everyday disagreements may feel threatening or hard to recover from.

Coping Skills

The practical tools people use to handle stress, strong emotions, and hard situations — and the work of building healthier ones when old habits no longer help.

For example, instead of shutting down after a stressful day, you might learn calmer ways to pause, name what you feel, and respond more intentionally.

Divorce

The emotional and practical strain of ending a marriage or partnership, including grief, anger, co-parenting stress, and rebuilding a new sense of self.

For example, you may feel torn between relief and loss, or struggle to communicate with an ex while protecting your children’s routines.

Domestic Abuse & Violence

Harm within a home or intimate relationship — physical, emotional, verbal, or controlling behavior — that leaves a person feeling unsafe, diminished, or trapped.

For example, a partner may monitor your phone, isolate you from friends, or use intimidation so you feel you cannot speak up or leave.

Family Conflict

Ongoing tension, arguments, or distance among family members that makes home feel stressful rather than supportive.

For example, holiday gatherings may end in the same fight, or adult siblings may avoid each other after years of unresolved resentment.

Grief

The natural but often overwhelming response to loss — of a person, relationship, health, or chapter of life — that can affect mood, sleep, and meaning.

For example, months after a death you may still feel waves of sadness in ordinary moments, like hearing a familiar song or passing a favorite restaurant.

Emotional Disturbance

Strong or unpredictable emotions that feel hard to manage and begin to disrupt school, work, friendships, or day-to-day functioning.

For example, a child may have frequent outbursts at school, or an adult may feel emotions shift so quickly that others struggle to keep up.

Impulse Control

Difficulty pausing before acting, which can lead to choices you later regret — with spending, anger, risk-taking, or other habits.

For example, you might say something hurtful in the heat of the moment, or make a large purchase you cannot afford and feel stuck afterward.

Self-Esteem

How you see and value yourself — including harsh self-criticism, feeling “not enough,” or tying your worth only to achievement or others’ approval.

For example, a compliment may bounce off, while a small mistake at work can leave you replaying it for days.

Eating Disorders

Distressing patterns around food, body image, or weight that can include restriction, bingeing, purging, or rigid rules that take over daily life.

For example, you might skip meals to “make up” for eating, avoid social events that involve food, or feel intense guilt after eating.

Educational & Learning Disabilities

Differences in how someone learns or processes information that can make reading, writing, math, or organization harder than expected for their age or intelligence.

For example, a bright student may read slowly despite trying hard, or need much more time than peers to finish written assignments.

School Issues

Challenges related to school performance, behavior, attendance, peer stress, or fitting in that leave a student struggling or avoiding school.

For example, a teen may start refusing school on test days, or a younger child may fall behind after bullying or classroom anxiety.

Parenting

The stress and uncertainty of raising children — including discipline, communication, co-parenting, and supporting a child’s emotional needs.

For example, you may feel stuck between setting limits and keeping connection, or disagree with a co-parent about bedtime or screen time.

Relationship Issues

Trouble with communication, trust, closeness, or conflict in romantic, family, friend, or work relationships.

For example, small disagreements may escalate quickly, or you may feel lonely even when you are not alone.

Life Transitions

Major life changes — such as a move, new job, retirement, empty nest, or new role — that shake your routines and sense of identity.

For example, after retiring or becoming a new parent, you may feel unmoored even when the change was wanted.

Bipolar Disorder

Shifts between unusually high-energy or elevated periods and low, depressive periods that can disrupt sleep, judgment, work, and relationships.

For example, you might go days with little sleep and racing ideas, then crash into weeks of exhaustion and hopelessness.

Behavioral Issues

Patterns of behavior that repeatedly cause problems at home, school, or work — such as aggression, defiance, withdrawal, or rule-breaking.

For example, a child may get frequent office referrals, or an adult may notice the same conflict pattern showing up in every job.
