We are proud to have, per citysearch.com, one of the top four psychologists in the state, Dr. Tracy Colsen, as our director of testing services in our practice.

Our practice is designed around giving people the option to choose what is the best fit for them. Some people want brief counseling services in order to overcome a difficult situation or crisis through powerful counseling/therapeutic interventions, while others prefer a more gentle long-term approach. One of the goals of long-term therapy is to get to the root of our problems in order to experience positive changes in our selves that can last for the rest of our lives!
