What makes Headway Therapy Group different from other therapist practices

A group of women are together. This reflects concepts of therapy in Encinitas, CA. Our therapists in Encinitas, CA are able to provide therapy for women and postpartum therapy. Headway Therapy Group is an intentionally boutique-style practice. This means that we are selective with whom we work. The purpose of which is to ensure that our work with you is both meaningful, satisfying and remains focused on your needs and treatment goals. Why do we do this? Well, because our therapists are experienced enough to know that we won’t be a great fit for every client. At first, that might sound counterintuitive. We’re therapists, we should be good with everyone, right? However, that’s not the case. We are specialized in working with children, teens, adult women, and moms. So, we like to stay in our lane and do what we’re trained in. To us, this means our work together is special. You will never just be “another client” in a “burgeoning caseload”.

Our therapists take time to get to know your story.

Sure, we take your past and present context into account when we work together. But, we also recognize that you may have other providers supporting you. We value consulting with these providers. This allows us to provide both continuity of care, as well as helping you feel completely supported. This is helpful for both our adult clients and especially for children and adolescents when a treatment team approach can be particularly valuable.

And, our therapists care.

When you become a client with a therapist at Headway Therapy Group, it will be different than any other counseling experience. You will experience an opportunity to develop a meaningful, insight-driven, professional relationship. One of our core values is the understanding that therapy is intended to be a professional yet deep and meaningful relationship. It provides a space in which you are able to voice your thoughts and feelings as they arise in the context of therapy, and allows you the space to process and explore how this develops in your interpersonal life. This allows you the opportunity to gain insights into yourself and make meaningful changes. All while feeling supported.
