We've all felt "anxious" at one time or another. Anxiety can occur in all of us. Sometimes symptoms pass quickly or stay a long while. Other times, symptoms persist and manifest physically or become true physical ailments such as headaches or upset stomachs.

It's essential to recognize the symptoms and to know that it's OK to be not OK. We can help you take the next step when you're ready to seek treatment. Call us.

Research shows that helping others can be good for our mental health. It reduces stress, improves our emotional well-being, and even benefits our physical health.

In honor of World Kindness Day, and in a world where you can be anything,

Be kind.

As we observe Veterans Day today, let us pay homage to those who bravely served our country. Their jobs are not glamorous and at times, leave many scars, seen and unseen.

To all Veterans, thank you for your service.

For those who need us (Veteran or not), our Centers are open today.

Unfortunately, all too often in today's society, children and adolescents experience a traumatic event in their lives. The trauma can reshape that individual and have lasting effects. Family, friends, and trusted adults are essential in helping youngsters and youth cope with their trauma. The good news is that healing is possible!

As a Sanctuary Model® certified organization, our training allows us to handle traumatic cases in a trauma-informed environment. We ask, "What's happened to you?" instead of, "What's wrong with you?" It then becomes a cornerstone of engaging with another person, where they can feel comfortable opening up and not on the defensive.

It's ok to ask for help at any time, including if you're unsure if your child has experienced trauma. Call us. We will help you.
