Individual & Family Counseling
(Psychotherapy)

Led by our team of licensed psychologists and counselors who have specialized training and disability expertise, AZA United offers psychotherapy & counseling for individuals, couples and families with a unique focus in supporting autism-related needs.

What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy and counseling services are designed to be a collaborative effort between the therapist and client and/or family. Therapists help clients identify goals and potential solutions to problems that cause emotional turmoil. We seek to improve communication and coping skills, strengthen self-esteem, increase resiliency, and promote behavior change and optimal mental health. AZA United’s psychotherapy and counseling program combines a number of evidence-based practices, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT) for children and adolescents, Mindfulness-Based Interventions, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Relationship-Based Therapies. Our services are offered face-to-face in the office or virtually using telehealth video technology.

Psychotherapy Service Models

When it comes to psychotherapy, there is no one-size-fits-all approach.  We believe every program should be designed to meet the unique needs of each individual & their family.  Here you can discover the AZA Service Model that is right for you.
