A note from the Director…

Crossroads has brought together therapists with a variety of rich educational and professional experiences. Even though we just opened our doors in the summer of 2002, our team has many decades of combined clinical expertise covering a wide range of specialty areas. The common thread for the staff at Crossroads is a shared commitment to clinical excellence and professionalism. We also seek to reflect our Christian faith in a respectful manner. Please don’t hesitate to call and speak with any of us as you search for the right therapist for your situation. We’re glad to answer your questions and share our perspectives as we strive to offer all our clients hope and direction along the way.
