The foundation of therapy is
A Safe Space
Having a safe, secure connection with a counselor is vital to the therapeutic process. We prioritize a therapeutic relationship that champions safety and trust. We want you to feel comfortable and confident in your counseling relationship with your counselor.
Counseling is a
Collaborative Process
We know that your experience matters. At the same time, we recognize that some challenges are best addressed together. We work alongside you to navigate life’s complexities. Collaborative therapy ensures that you are never alone, and counseling for change occurs on your terms alone.
Process and Heal through
Empowerment & Autonomy
With careful direction, we empower you to set the pace for each therapy session, because you are the expert of your life experience. Being present and involved throughout every nuance of the treatment planning process, witnessing your greatest goals come to fruition. We honor your autonomy by involving you in every aspect of your treatment planning and goal setting.
Our Collaborative Approach to Counseling near Oakland Park
What if you could have two therapists collaborating on your care instead of just one? That’s essentially what happens when you work with a qualified pre-licensed provider who is closely supervised by a licensed provider. Through this model, you benefit from a real-time supervisory dynamic: the fresh insights of a professional counselor-in-training plus the seasoned oversight of an experienced clinician.
Our collaborative approach is backed by both clinical wisdom and research, and is as effective – if not more so – than working with a single counselor.
