About Alpenglow
Alpenglow Psychology provides psychotherapy services and psychological testing tailored to each individual’s needs. Individualized psychotherapy may mean receiving support adjusting to new circumstances in life, establishing new coping strategies, working through a specific difficulty, processing grief and loss, or for some individuals, it may mean increasing insight to get to the root of things and working on long-standing patterns that have prevented you from thriving in life. Whatever your concern may be, Alpenglow welcomes adolescents (16+) and adults of all ages into a collaborative therapeutic process that meets your needs. We provide a safe space for you to explore and address your concerns to help you build a more meaningful life that allows you to thrive.
Alpenglow also provides comprehensive psychological testing to meet individualized needs. Psychological testing is similar to other health-related testing: it can offer diagnoses, clarify symptoms, and enhance self-understanding. Alpenglow’s testing services are designed to help guide you in choosing the right treatment for your needs and to assist you in utilizing treatment more effectively.
