Compassionate mental healthcare with therapists who meet you where you are.
We offer both in-person appointments in Harrisonburg and virtual appointments across Virginia. Our counselors are in-network with most major insurance plans to make quality care more affordable.
We’re Glad You’re Here.
We are a group of expert licensed psychotherapists providing counseling tailored to the needs of the person across from us. We offer individual and couples therapy, as well as referrals for medication management and other mental health services.
Our therapists are all experienced in helping clients navigate things like stress, depression, anxiety, and relationships, but we encourage you to visit each therapist’s page to decide which of us you might connect with best. While our strong clinical skills are our foundation, we come from an array of life experiences. Each of us offers counseling shaped by where we’ve been.
Taking the step to find a therapist can be daunting. Your decision to prioritize your well-being by reaching out will be met with warmth and a prompt response.
All of our therapists are in-network with most major insurance providers. However, we do not accept Medicaid or Medicare plans. If we are out of network, financial assistance may be available.
