Beginning therapy is an act of courage, and at A2CS, we want you to feel supported from the very first step. Whether you’re new to counseling or returning after time away, our goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to explore your story at your own pace.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN THERAPY

A Safe, Welcoming Environment
Your therapy experience begins with compassion. From the moment you walk in, you’ll be met with warmth, respect, and a space designed to help you feel grounded. There is no pressure to share more than you’re ready for — this is your time, and your comfort matters.
A Conversation, Not an Evaluation
Your first session is simply a conversation. We’ll talk about what brought you here, what you’re hoping to understand or change, and what you need to feel supported. There are no right or wrong answers. You’re not being judged or analyzed — you’re being heard.
Understanding Your Story
Because A2CS specializes in trauma‑informed care, we take time to understand the experiences, patterns, and emotions that may be influencing your life today. You won’t be pushed to revisit anything before you’re ready. Instead, we gently explore your story together, honoring your pace and your boundaries.
A Personalized Therapy Plan
Every person processes trauma differently, which means every healing journey is unique. Together, we’ll create a therapy plan that reflects your needs, your goals, and your readiness. This may include exploring past experiences, learning new coping tools, or working toward reconnecting with your authentic self.
A Collaborative Healing Process
Therapy at A2CS is not something done to you — it’s something we do with you. You’ll be supported, guided, and encouraged, but never rushed. Healing unfolds in layers, and we walk with you through each one, helping you understand what’s beneath the surface and how it affects your present‑day life.
A Space to Grow Into Yourself
As therapy progresses, many clients begin to feel more grounded, more connected, and more aligned with who they truly are. Our work together focuses on helping you break down the walls trauma has built, so you can move toward a life that feels more fulfilling, peaceful, and authentically yours.
You’re Not Alone
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. We’re here to support you, guide you, and walk with you every step of the way.

Groups - COMING SOON!

IN-PERSON DBT SKILLS GROUP
Mondays 5pm-6pm
A weekly skills education group for people struggling with eating disorders and long standing patterns of behavior interfering with forming relationships, maintaining mental health and using effective coping skills. Insurance not required, Requires a six-month commitment and orientation session. 
IN-PERSON TRAUMA PROCESS GROUP
Thursdays 6:30pm-8pm
For individuals that recognize that the trauma/overwhelm they have had in their childhood (or adulthood) has manifested in ways which challenge their lives. We ALL have trauma in our background. We cope with that trauma by creating "a false self" to manage the overwhelm. The false self then becomes challenging to maintain and then...we medicate. Food, alcohol, drugs, workaholism, co-dependency, avoidance; there are many ways we each choose our way of silencing the noise. The goal of this group is to allow individuals to come with a willingness to do the real work; processing trauma in a supportive and enriching environment.
​
IN-PERSON MEDITATION GROUP
Day and Time TBD
Take a pause. Breathe deeply….again, breathe deeply. Reconnect with yourself…and your body. Quiet your mind, open your heart. Join us for a nourishing evening of guided meditation as we discover that being calm in the face of chaos means letting freedom run through our humanity, not in spite of it.
