The Cognitive Clinic provides individual, couples, family, and group therapy in an outpatient setting. We work with adults, children, and adolescents. Our areas of treatment include anxiety, stress management, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief & loss, and compulsive over eating. We have specialists who are trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as well as mindfulness. We help people CHANGE their thinking patterns so that they can achieve their goals. When their thoughts are more in control, they are able to DISCOVER what they are truly capable of. At that point, their entire life will begin to TRANSFORM in ways they never imaged.
