“How did we get here?”

Begin with an Intake Session
In your first session, we’ll explore your story, goals, and what you hope to get out of therapy. This helps us understand your history, patterns, and key challenges.
Start Your Therapy Journey
Together, you’ll begin the process of meaningful self-exploration and change, working at your pace, with your therapist supporting you every step of the way.

Why Work With Mend Center for Psychotherapy
You're not a problem to fix, but a story to understand.
At Mend Center for Psychotherapy, we believe therapy should go deeper than symptom relief. Our work is rooted in the belief that many of the challenges people face, anxiety, disconnection, trauma, burnout, stem from unspoken pain, relational wounds, and unseen patterns. These aren’t signs of weakness. They’re signs of something important needing attention.
We specialize in in-depth, relational psychotherapy that helps bring those hidden parts of the self into awareness, to help you feel more alive, more connected, and more fully yourself.
Our therapists are trained in psychodynamic, attachment-informed, and trauma-focused modalities. We work with people who’ve tried therapy before but didn’t get the depth or clarity they needed. Whether you’re facing a major transition or a quiet sense that something isn’t quite right, we help you understand your inner world so you can move through it with clarity and compassion.
Healing takes time, courage, and the right support. We’re here when you’re ready.
