Find Your Path
Our Approach
Cultural Compass is committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive space where clients feel safe to explore their unique experiences and challenges. Our approach is grounded in evidence-based techniques - drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and multicultural therapy - to provide a balanced blend of practical skill-building and meaningful insight development.
We believe that effective therapy involves both learning concrete tools and building deeper self-awareness. Together, we work to identify and shift patterns that may be causing you distress and equip you with skills to manage life’s challenges. This approach allows you to experience real change in both your behaviors and perspectives.

Intake Evaluation
Initial appointment that focuses on gathering background history, understanding symptom presentation, completing clinical measures (if needed), and assessing needs for therapy. During this time, we will also review informed consent and provide information on the practice’s policies. We will make a preliminary plan for treatment and create goals collaboratively. This is a great time for clients to express what they are hoping to get out of treatment and how we can best work together!
Care Coordination
Collaboration with providers in the client’s care team (e.g., medical team, psychiatrists, or school) to ensure personalized and comprehensive care.
