Welcome to our web site!
We are Gary and Joy Hanson – Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists. Our goal is to provide clients with the tools necessary to address beliefs and patterns of behavior, which prevent them from reaching their goals and dreams. We welcome your call or email and are happy to answer any questions you might have at no obligation to you.
What we do?
We offer professional counseling and coaching services including: marriage counseling, individual and family counseling, life coaching and organizational consulting using a respectful, collaborative, solution-focused, brief therapy approach that achieves results.
Do you take insurance? Do you specialize? Is there any hope for our marriage? Is counseling only about “how I feel”? Can people change? “Do you work with blended families?”.
Our clients regularly express appreciation for our use of a solution-focused,
cognitive, brief therapy model, which is straightforward, provides direct feedback,
and achieves results.
- As Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists, we are part of the 12% of
counselors specifically trained in working with marriages and families. - Over 60% of our clients are couples seeking help for the relationships and
marriages. - We provide practical tools and resources that can achieve rapid results.
- We are not neutral when it comes to couples staying together and are listed in
the Directory of Marriage Friendly Therapists. - We work diligently to hold the hope of renewal and restoration of your
relationship and marriage. In those instances when a couple chooses divorce, we
help guide them through the process, addressing and helping balance the needs of
all family members especially the children – now and in the future. - At your invitation, we welcome the opportunity to integrate a Christian
worldview with sound research-based clinical practice. - We offer flexible hours to accommodate your schedule.
- We are in several local insurance networks, coordinate billing with and/or
payment from your health savings (HSA) or flex spending account, can bill other
insurers on an out-of-network basis, and offer a discounted private-pay rate.
If you are seeking couple’s counseling, individual counseling, or family therapy from
a solution-focused, cognitive approach, you will receive highly personalized care,
insight into your problems and the tools to move beyond discouragement and
frustration toward realizing your goals and dreams.
