There are times when life feels overwhelming and you simply need a safe space to talk it out. A psychotherapy crisis appointment provides immediate support during those moments.

This longer session ensures there is ample space for detailed discussion, questions, and a deeper focus on overall wellness

During your private telehealth or in-person session, we explore your mental-health history, current needs, and the therapeutic role your animal plays in your well-being.

Restlessness if taken late in the day
Mild headache
Take with food if sensitive.
