Psychotherapy

Turning Leaf Counseling (TLC) is an outpatient psychotherapy private practice for adolescents, young adults, families, and adults.

Counseling is right for anyone who feels there is an area in their lives that needs improvement, direction, guidance, change, or growth…and when the old tried and true approaches we typically take, don’t seem to be working anymore.

Benefits of Psychotherapy:

Each person is different, however goals of therapy typically are to improve mood, reduce anxiety and worry, strengthen self-esteem, improve ability to manage stress,work through educational barriers and social challenges, plan for career changes/new schools/college/graduation,  process grief or challenging life circumstances (divorce, loss, moving, etc), improve relationship dynamics, improve communication techniques, strengthen and support parenting techniques (implement and maintain realistic expectations, structure, and boundaries), and to make smoother transitions in their lives.
