About
Balance and Bloom
Balance and Bloom is a private therapy practice committed to helping people learn and grow in all aspects of life. The decision to open Balance and Bloom came from a drive to do things differently than "the system" allowed. Opening in March, 2023, it is a trauma informed company that values relationships, ethical and informed decision making, and meeting people where they are in life. EMDR is the main modality of treatment, however, a combination of approaches and theories will be used, based on you and your needs. This may also include CBT, psychoeducation, person in environment, and solution focused.
