Healthy Minds is a counseling group dedicated to providing compassionate mental health services. We take pride in offering a comfortable, safe, and welcoming environment—whether in person or virtually—where clients can feel free to express themselves as they work towards their therapy goals. At Healthy Minds, we focus on supporting your long-term growth and emotional freedom.

Our Services include mental health diagnostic assessments, treatment recommendations, individual counseling and couples counseling. Our therapeutic approaches include:

Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) you are able to recognize negative thought and behavior patterns. The goal of CBT is to help you identify the ways your emotions and thoughts can affect your actions.

Solution Focused Therapy uses a goal focused approach in achieving therapy goals. It is future driven and allows you to focus on the solutions rather than the problems that you are experiencing.

Narrative Therapy is a strengths based approach that helps you separate yourself from your problems and rewrite your story in a way that highlights resilience and growth.

Strengths-Based Therapy focuses on the client’s existing resources, resilience, and positive attributes in order to use these abilities to improve quality of life.

Motivational Interviewing focuses on exploring and resolving uncertainty through motivational processes that facilitate change in ways that align with the person’s own values and concerns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) supports healing from emotional distress that is a result of traumatic or disturbing experiences. EMDR uses a unique approach to explore these events and process them in a way that provides long term relief. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR allows the brain to reframe these memories, reducing their emotional charge and enabling healthier emotional responses.
