Care that fits you

CAC Therapy Services

Individual therapy

Sometimes life feels overwhelming, and having a space to talk it through can make all the difference. Our individual counseling sessions focus on helping you manage stress, anxiety, depression, or major life changes with guidance from a supportive therapist.

Couples Therapy

Strong relationships take effort, and sometimes an outside perspective helps partners reconnect. Our couples counseling sessions provide a supportive space to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and build healthier patterns together.

Family Therapy

Every family faces challenges, and therapy can be a safe way to work through them as a unit. Our family counseling sessions help strengthen bonds, improve communication, and give each family member a voice in the process.

Group Therapy

Sometimes it helps to know you’re not alone. Our group counseling sessions bring together people facing similar challenges, offering encouragement and practical tools in a guided setting. Each session is just $5 after a free screening.

Childrens Therapy

Kids experience stress and change in ways that aren’t always easy to put into words. Our children’s therapy uses play- and talk-based approaches to help children manage emotions, improve behavior, and build resilience, while keeping parents involved in the process.
