Everyone needs support sometimes coping with life.
We’re here to help.
At New Directions, you’ll be able to share your experiences without judgment.
Let’s face it, seeking out a therapist can be an intimidating venture: “Can I trust my therapist?”, “Will he/she understand me?”, “Can I freely share my struggles without being judged?”, and ultimately, “Will he/she be able to help me”?
Good news!
At New Directions Psychotherapies we make it our priority within the first contacts to help you feel relaxed and accepted and confident in our expertise to assist you while creating an environment of safety and trust where you can freely experience and process your thoughts, feelings, or anything you deem important. As your therapists, we emphatically and actively listen to and answer any questions that may arise in the process of therapy. Our intentional approach to therapy creates a forum where you feel comfortable and free to share your ideas, needs and/or struggles in a safe place. This, in turn, alleviates barriers and fosters an authentic therapeutic connection, building confidence in the process.
