AQAL THERAPIES VISION
No one likes to admit it, but we all have that something that we wish was different. We wish we were better.
Wish we were more talented. Would like to be heard. Wish we knew better ways to communicate.
Hope things might some how be different. Yet, we often continue to do the same thing unless we come across something or someone who shows us an alternative path, a different way. That is what you will find here. Someone to help you challenge these notions, explore different avenues and find new ways of being.

ABOUT AQAL THERAPIES
Assisting individuals, couples and families in addressing a variety of issues with a focus on working with those dealing with stress and anxiety, depression, couples counseling, disruptive/maladaptive child disorders, and eating disorders/body image disorders.
AQAL stands for "all quadrants, all levels, all lines, all states and all types" which is an effective way of assessing five major ways that we develop, perceive and interact with both the internal and external world. Utilizing this approach allows the development of a map, marking where one is, where one would like to be, and the challenges that lie between the two.
Identifying these elements allows for the development of a unique plan or series of steps required to achieve identified goals giving those worked with access to that very specific knowledge and skills required in addressing challenges with an increased rate of success.
