In life, we are often faced with obstacles that challenge our energy, will-power, psychological, and most importantly our emotional well-being.  Here at Journey to Pathways, we offer a safe and confidential space for you to explore various areas of your life without judgment. We believe in starting with you and your understanding of your presenting issues, thereafter working collaboratively through your emotional pain and/or discomfort.  

We utilize an eclectic style of treatment, drawing on various aspects of interpersonal, cognitive-behavioral, developmental, and family systems theories to design an approach to treatment that works best for each individual or family and their particular concerns. Our area of expertise is in providing therapy to clients who manifest a wide range of problems related to their anxiety, anger, mood disorders, addictions, and substance use disorders, especially individuals with dual diagnoses. As Employee Assistance Specialists, we also treat individuals suffering from job-related and personal stressors.
