Meet Cody

Cody’s anxiety had a ripple effect on his life. It held him back from pursuing custody of his daughter, creating a stable home, working regularly, and maintaining healthy habits. Then, through weekly Buckelew counseling, he explored past relationships and learned mindfulness and CBT techniques. As his confidence grew, he made positive changes, including strengthening his bond with his daughter.

Group Therapy

We offer comprehensive open and closed therapy groups. One example is Mariposa, a free clinical therapy program for Spanish-speaking women seeking support with postpartum mental health, domestic violence, or other trauma-related challenges. Held weekly on Zoom, Mariposa provides a safe space for women to connect, share, and receive professional care in their own language.

Grief support groups will be added soon. Click below to learn more or express interest in joining any of our groups.
