Empowering you to live life to the fullest.
Our Mission
To empower children, teens, and parents to live life to the fullest. We provide quality, evidence-based assessment and therapy services for a wide range of childhood challenges.
We are passionate about effective therapy and creative, empowering service delivery. This collective desire among five founding psychologists to provide high-quality, scientifically based psychological services under one umbrella is why we created Cornerstone.
Our approach is collaborative and engaging. We help individuals and families rediscover their own strengths and develop skills for lasting positive change. We work together with clients to help understand the nature of their struggles and identify an individualized treatment plan that is based in science and prioritizes clients’ values and goals.
