Therapy for teens and adults built on genuine human connection.
We're not here to be blank slates.
We show up as real people who listen, care, and help you move forward.

We help you feel like you again.
You know that feeling when you don't quite recognize yourself anymore? When you're going through the motions but something's just... off?
Maybe you're anxious all the time. Or numb. Or so overwhelmed you can't think straight.
Maybe a relationship is falling apart and you don't know how to fix it. Or life threw you a curveball and you're still trying to figure out what's next.
Whatever's weighing on you, we're here.
Our counselors will help you move from overwhelmed to in control, from anxious to calm, from stuck to actually living the life you want.
Life can be tough, and you don't have to face it alone.
At Bright Light Counseling Center, we're here to walk with you through whatever you're facing.
Life throws curveballs. Sometimes it's anxiety that won't quit, depression that makes everything feel heavy, or ADHD that's making daily life harder than it should be.
Maybe you're dealing with trauma, navigating a tough relationship, or just trying to figure out who you are after a major life change.
Whatever it is, our counselors are here to help.
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Our approach is personal. We listen, we collaborate with you, and we use our training to create a space where you can actually heal and grow.


Convenient therapy from your house or our offices.
