Individual Therapy
One-on-one counseling
Therapy is a collaborative process. In regularly scheduled sessions, you’ll work with a licensed clinician to identify what’s keeping you stuck, develop insight, and build practical strategies to reach your goals. We often use short-term, structured approaches such as CBT that have strong research support for anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and more. Sessions are warm and goal-oriented, and we measure progress throughout so you always know where you stand.

Couples Therapy
Strengthening relationships
Relationship difficulties are among the most common — and most treatable — challenges people face. Our therapists work with couples to improve communication, resolve conflict, and rebuild connection. Whether you’re navigating a specific crisis or looking to strengthen an already solid relationship, we tailor the approach to where you are. We work with married couples, partners, and individuals seeking to improve their relationships.

Family Therapy
Support for the whole family
Family relationships shape how we think, feel, and navigate the world. When those relationships are strained — by a child’s struggles, a major life transition, conflict, or loss — family therapy can help restore understanding and connection. We work with families of all kinds, including parents and children, blended families, and adult siblings. Sessions focus on improving communication, resolving conflict, and building the kind of home environment where everyone can thrive.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Our core clinical specialty
CBT is the most rigorously researched form of psychotherapy in use today, with hundreds of studies confirming its effectiveness for anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, relationship difficulties, and more. Unlike open-ended talk therapy, CBT is structured, present-focused, and skill-based. Clients leave sessions with tools they can use immediately and keep for life. At PPA, CBT is the foundation of everything we do.
