Individual Therapy
In our individual therapy sessions, our goal is to create the safe space in which you can share your deepest thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This is a place where you can gain awareness and further explore the connections into how your past affects your present, which can then enable you to gain new insights about the future you want to create. With this new perception, we can work together to create the techniques to help you optimize your life.

Dare to explore the power of working together as a family unit to usher in a closely knit support system that you always dreamt of.
Couples
There is no such thing as a perfect relationship. While we feel pressured in many ways to have the perfect relationship, we realistically have issues in our partnerships that need to be identified, addressed, and transformed. Some of these issues could benefit from an additional level of support provided by a qualified professional that can serve as an objective mediator in helping you understand the dynamics of your relationship. Here at Mental Peaks Therapy, we have made it our mission to facilitate the expert guidance and the support that a partner needs to tackle their problems so that they can reach the next level of long-lasting intimacy and trust.
Men’s Issues
Partially due to certain gender role expectations of society, many men find themselves in a space where they feel pressured to always be strong, solve problems, and become selfless providers. In today’s demanding climate, it is easy for men to become worn out without much of any social and emotional support systems, let alone having an outlet where they can freely speak about the nature of their internal conflict. Mental Peaks Therapy aims to meet the needs of men of any age and background, who are looking to open up in a safe and a non-judgmental space.
Childhood issues and other Trauma
In our clinical practice, we understand that an individual has numerous childhood experiences, some of which are processed, yet others untouched or avoided due to the long-lasting effects of such experiences. With that in mind, it is vital to understand that past experiences continue to affect our present, and our approach is centered around helping you to gain insight into them and to find new perspectives. Together, we'll help you explore your journey and develop personalized techniques to empower your healing process via use of techniques such as doing inner child journaling, re-narrating your story via narrative therapy, identifying attachment styles, and examining history of family dynamics in figuring out your thought patterns in the present.
Grief
Loss of a loved one is a reality for many of us in this finite world. Loss can happen in many of ways such as separation, divorce, a move and leave us experiencing emotions such as intense sadness, anxiety, anger, regret, and guilt. In our grief-focused therapy, our primary objective is to create a safe and nurturing environment where we help you to adapt to the loss of a loved one and be able to adjust to a new reality without him or her. Together, we will develop effective coping strategies and healing approaches to support you in your process of recovery and transformation. Such approaches will revolve around stages of grief along with four tasks of mourning which are accepting the reality of loss, processing the pain of grief, adjusting to a world without the deceased and finding an enduring connection with the deceased while embarking on a new life.
Children and Adolescents
Whether kids have trauma or are struggling with current stressors, they are in a constant state of trying to find their place in the world while trying to figure themselves out. A qualified professional can help kids and adolescents deal with really hard subjects such as socialization, self-esteem, identity formation, exploration and expression of thoughts and feelings, academic and personal responsibilities, and developing and maintaining secure attachment to those around them. Here at Mental Peaks Therapy, we create the safe space that kids and adolescents need to be modeled and taught positive coping strategies to reach their full potential.

Relationship Coaching
A healthy relationship requires the appropriate interpersonal skills and attitudes to maintain its meaningful connection in the long run.

Substance Abuse Treatment
Sobriety is a superpower however it does not come naturally like the ones that Marvel characters have. Often times, it takes willingness to recognize addiction as a problem along with the readiness to address that problem. Research shows that alcohol and substance dependent person’s emotional state directly effects their cravings; positive emotional state shows an association with lower stress and reduced alcohol craving whereas negative emotional state is associated with higher levels of substance craving.
