Best Children's Counseling Office

We are immensely proud to announce that our dedication to children's counseling has been recognized with the prestigious 2024 Best of the Nest Award, a testament to our unwavering commitment to supporting to the young in our Central Oregon community.

You matter.

As a practice we bring a holistic and collaborative approach to counseling. We see each client as their own individual self with a story. We work with individual adults and children to help them find their pathway to healing and strength through a client-centered approach. When working with children and families we maintain confidentiality for the child while not leaving the parents in the dark. We strive to create a therapeutic environment that is safe, respectful, and without judgment.
