Find Your Truth
At Truth Center for Health & Healing, we support our clients to become their full authentic self. We recognize that life experiences have a large impact on how a person shows up in the room. Those life experiences can cause distress that leads to anxiety, depression, feelings of hopelessness, and/or feeling disconnected from others. We are a practice that brings compassion and understanding into the therapy room along with our expertise to support the healing journey our clients will go on. We work collaboratively with our clients to build treatment around their goals for therapy using a trauma-informed lens that asks not what’s wrong with you, but rather, what happened to you?
Am I Ready For Therapy?
The thought of therapy to be a very scary concept. People will begin the process of therapy even before they enter the room just by thinking about going to therapy. It takes courage to be vulnerable with a person that you don’t know. This is why we believe in building a genuine and authentic relationship with our clients. As therapy is a space where you share some of your most intimate thoughts and feelings, we honor the relationship that is being created between client and therapist. Our belief is that no change can be made unless our clients feel safe enough to do so. Our therapists work intentionally to empower our clients to be the leader of their lives and foster opportunities for growth and change within themselves.

​
Deepened Self-Awareness
One of the most profound benefits of therapy is increased self-awareness. Through guided exploration of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, therapy helps uncover patterns that might be holding you back from living your fullest life. This awareness is the first step toward meaningful change.
​
Support During Major Life Transitions
Major life transitions can be overwhelming, whether facing a career change, moving to a new city, marriage, or losing a loved one. Therapy provides support during these times, helping you process your emotions and adjust to new circumstances.
​
Recovery from Trauma
Healing from traumatic experiences requires specialized care. Our therapists use trauma-informed approaches to help individuals safely confront past traumas and move towards healing.
What’s the Difference Between Counseling & Therapy?
While often used interchangeably, counseling and therapy serve different purposes. Both are essential components of mental health care:
​
Counseling typically focuses on specific issues or situations, providing guidance and support for a shorter duration. It’s about problem-solving particular hurdles you currently face.
​
Therapy, however, involves a deeper dive into emotional challenges. It explores patterns over time, aiming for profound emotional changes. Therapy can help unearth long-standing issues contributing to your current state.
​
At Truth Center, both counseling and therapy are conducted by qualified therapists who tailor their approach based on your unique needs—ensuring effective treatment regardless of the method applied.

Discovery of true connection for individuals, couples and families through therapy
A Happier, Healthier You
Our current and past relationship often impact our daily interactions with others and ourselves. Anxiety, depression, and self-esteem are all triggered by these interactions. Seeking therapy for yourself creates the space for you to discover these patterns of living and gain tangible skills to create new healthier patterns and deeper connections with yourself and others.
Better Together
Marriage and Family Therapy addresses communication/interactions not just between people but rather highlights all forces internally and externally that are making an impact on your family unit. Bringing everyone into the room allows for the creation of a safe space for all to be heard and acknowledged in their experience. We all usually have the same goal, but at times our different perspectives block us from getting there together. Allow family/couples therapy to be your safe space to reach your shared goals.
