Our Team

Our counselors are kind, concerned and ready to help.

It is one of our great joys in life to be able to really help individuals, families and couples here at Collaborative Counseling and Psychiatry to find strength in their relationships and really find hope again.  At Collaborative Counseling and Psychiatry, we work with a wide variety of issues including depression, anxiety, marital issues, parent-child relationship difficulties and issues associated with adolescence and adulthood.  We believe therapy should be designed around you—therapy that should be personalized to who you are and your unique situation.  Therapy is available in office, on-line and by phone. 

At Collaborative Counseling and Psychiatry, we want therapy to be comfortable for everyone.  At our office, you will find we sit in deep comfortable chairs and couches in a warm, inviting and safe environment to look at the problem differently and offer practical solutions for you to take home and outside of the therapy room.
