Boundary Setting

"We have learned how to really hear each other. I'm a very logical thinker so being able to talk about my feelings and learn how to validate my wife's feelings is significant growth for me. The work we are doing in couple's therapy has definitely made our connection stronger."

-W.H. & C.H. (Couples Therapy Client)
"Therapy has taught me that I don't have to be perfect. As a self-proclaimed perfectionist that was really hard to believe because being hard on myself is what I have always done."

-K.D. (Individual Therapy Client)
"Shalandra has such a comforting presence. For the first time, I felt understood. I felt heard."

-M.K. (Individual Therapy Client)
