Different is good…
At our practice, we believe that all pieces of wellness, including cultural healing and beliefs, the power of community, and the benefits of a safe space, are valuable and worthy.
Real Experts caring for Real People
We are trained in specialized knowledge from empirically based research and applicable theoretical approaches for a multiculturally humble and aware perspective. (We’re really book-smart!)
And we have enough care for the whole person to translate all that data, research, and science into the best care for the most important person in the room…YOU.
Therapy is not one-size fits all.
We work with you and what you need from therapy. Not into worksheets or homework? No problem! You want homework? Of course! Space to talk and process works best? You got it. You want us to take the lead? We got you.
Your connection with your counselor is everything.
Strengthening Wellness chooses counselors that are excellent in their skills, invested in their field, and dedicated to creating meaningful, lasting change for their clients. Take time to choose the right counselor for you and let us know if you start with someone but you aren’t feeling a strong sense of fit or connection – we’ll be able to help you find the one that’s right for you. Even if its not with our office.
