Services
Psychological Testing
Our comprehensive psychological evaluations identify cognitive, emotional, and behavioral patterns through standardized testing. This diagnostic process helps create personalized treatment plans for conditions like learning disabilities, ADHD, and personality disorders. Our licensed psychologists use evidence-based assessment tools to provide accurate diagnoses that guide effective therapeutic interventions.
Trauma Recovery
Specialized trauma treatment programs address PTSD and complex trauma using EMDR therapy and other evidence-based approaches. Our clinicians help patients process traumatic memories while developing coping strategies for emotional regulation. Treatment focuses on restoring functionality and improving quality of life for individuals affected by abuse, accidents, or other traumatic experiences.
Family Therapy
Systemic family therapy sessions address relationship dynamics and communication patterns affecting household members. Our therapists work with families to resolve conflicts, improve understanding, and establish healthier interaction frameworks. This approach benefits households dealing with intergenerational issues, major life transitions, or behavioral concerns in children and adolescents.
Child Custody Evaluations
Court-ordered custody evaluations provide objective assessments of family dynamics and parenting capabilities. Our forensic psychologists conduct comprehensive interviews, psychological testing, and home observations to determine optimal custody arrangements. These evaluations help legal professionals make informed decisions about child welfare and parental responsibilities.
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy helps patients reprocess traumatic memories through guided eye movements and bilateral stimulation. This evidence-based approach effectively treats PTSD, anxiety disorders, and trauma-related conditions by reducing the emotional intensity of distressing memories while promoting cognitive restructuring and emotional healing.
