Connection. Regulation. Healing
Join the village at Village Mental Health Center
“I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.”
Your Path To Healing Starts Here!
-
Treatment at Village MHC starts with a consult call (if desired) followed by an intake appointment which allows for me to gather information about you, your strengths and your current needs. This is also a time for you to get to know me and ensure that I will be a good fit for you. A healthy therapeutic relationship is the foundation for growth.
-
Healthy change happens once we’re out of crisis mode. So early therapy sessions at Village MHC focus on establishing safety and developing effective coping strategies to help you navigate life’s challenges without letting them overwhelm you. You and/ or your child can expect to leave the very first session with at least one strategy to help manage dysregulated emotions.
-
Healing is facilitated through connection with your therapist, with yourself and with your sense of purpose. Village Mental Health Center exists to provide you with the tools and the space to achieve measurable progress and lasting results.
