ABOUT
Untangling Thoughts, Strengthening Connections
Therapy can be a highly effective first-line treatment for many mental health concerns, often providing results comparable to or better than medication alone. While medication helps regulate brain chemistry to ease symptoms, therapy addresses the underlying thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to distress. Together, they create a comprehensive approach to mental health, offering both symptom relief and long-term strategies for well-being.
