Our work is grounded in systemic change, integrative therapy, and a deep investment in community.
We’re a mental health private practice of family and couples therapists dedicated to nurturing children, teens, couples, families, and individuals in their personal and relational growth.
Understanding that healing happens individually and through relationships, we provide a supportive and compassionate space for you to explore challenges, strengthen connections, and build healthier patterns.
Nurturing Relationships’ therapists walk alongside you with empathy, insight, evidence-based care, and humanness.
Our Approach
How we work at Nurturing Relationships
Before we challenge patterns or explore change, we first seek to understand what you’re experiencing in the context of your life.
We honor your values, culture, and background. We do not assume or judge anything about your circumstances. We offer compassion to help you feel seen, heard, and understood – especially in difficult moments.
Understanding why things happen helps us provide empathy for ourselves, navigate the moment, and live with intentionality.
As we start to notice constraints, we’ll support you in finding ways to be seen and feel heard. And we’ll give you the resources and connections to make it through. Whether it’s referrals for medical or school support, yoga, meditation, nutrition, basic needs – or other avenues for your healing – we’ll tend to you as a whole person, within the systems that surround you.

On The Journal
Some recent reflections from our clinicians
How do I help my child when they are worrying?
Worries don’t just live in the mind. They can show up in the body, too – especially for kids who may feel their anxiety before they can name it.

When should we go to couples therapy?
All relationships are impacted by the context in which we live. Nurturing Relationships will help you better understand yours through a systemic and contextual lens.

Understanding who you really are.
We’re all made up of many “parts,” – and understanding them can help us respond with more self-compassion, emotional regulation, and clarity in our relationships.
