Life feels hard when big emotions are running the show.
When your child comes in the door, you feel like you’re walking on eggshells. How will your child react today?
It’s a constant struggle to communicate with your child when he has an explosive episode. And he doesn’t seem to want your comfort.
Your dream of the ‘perfect’ family with dinner and conversation each night, going on adventures with the entire family, or just catching a child’s extracurricular event seems lightyears away.
Your emotions are running your life.
Every day feels like you’re putting out one fire after another.
If it isn’t an issue with your daughter at school, it’s your boss demanding more overtime to complete a project.
There’s no quality time for you and your partner to talk about issues – let alone have a date night.
Going through regular life transitions makes you feel like you’ve been knocked off your feet.
It’s time to reach out for help.
You know as well as we do that navigating these experiences is far from easy. But you don’t have to go through this journey alone, friend.
We help individuals and families move through life by giving them the necessary tools to successfully navigate situations – from everyday occurrences to big transitions. We’re so happy you’re here!
Welcome – you’re in the right place.
We offer so much more than a listening ear.
We meet you where you are and provide the
tools you need to overcome life’s challenges.
About Us
At Tender Hearts, we use multiple evidence-based therapies to help our clients reach their unique goals.
Rather than sticking to one method of therapy, we take an integrative approach, using various evidence-based frameworks to help clients learn new skills and work through things in a way that is best for them.
With more than 20 years of collective experience working with children, teens, adults, and families, we understand that no two individuals are the same.
We’re extremely passionate about mental health and healing. Celebrating all the little victories you or your child will experience along the therapeutic journey is our favorite part of the job!
Ways to Work Together
Being a child is difficult enough on its own. But for kids who have trouble regulating their emotions and behaviors, it can be especially tough. Play therapy, along with other expressive therapies, helps kids learn skills that show them how to stay in control of their bodies and put words
to their experiences.

The teen and tween years can be challenging. On top of going through hormonal changes and navigating social dynamics at school, social media prevents teens from ever fully disconnecting and being present at home. Different forms of talk and expressive therapies can help your teen navigate these difficult years of their life.
