It’s All About You

This space was created with your story, your struggles, and your growth in mind. Therapy should be a place where you can slow down, feel truly seen, and begin moving toward the life you want.

Whether you're navigating OCD, anxiety, ADHD, family or relationship changes, school-related concerns, life transitions, or simply feeling overwhelmed, care is thoughtfully tailored to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Every person is different, and care should reflect that.

Healing can happen in many places. In addition to office and telehealth sessions, Rising Tides also offers experiential therapy on the farm with horses and goats. Different environments can create different opportunities for growth, but the heart of the work remains the same: meeting you where you are, no matter what tide you're facing.

Sometimes a different setting changes everything.

Rising Tides offers experiential and animal-assisted therapy at the farm, integrating traditional counseling with thoughtfully designed experiences involving horses, goats, and the natural environment.

Sessions may include walking alongside a horse, interacting with or observing the goats, or simply using the outdoor setting as part of the therapeutic process.
