About Us
Halcyon (hal-see-on)
Adjective: Referring to a time of peace
Noun: a Kingfisher native to Africa and Asia
Myth: a bird with the power within her wings to quieten the waves and calm the winds so that she could create a nest over the sea
HMH was founded in 2015 with the goal of supporting this philosophy through clinical counseling services, community education, and interdisciplinary partnerships. We chose the name Halcyon because it carries multiple meanings aligned with our philosophy of a life guided by peace and empowerment.
We partner with our clients to support progress towards creating their own sense of calm by focusing on self-identified goals. Talking is only a part of the process; we also incorporate experiential activities during and between sessions.

Trauma-informed care
A traumatic experience is anything a person finds disturbing or distressing. Typically we think of traumas as major, life changing events like abuse, violence, life threatening situations, etc. While those are true, limiting our definition of trauma does not respect the impact all adverse life experiences have on our functioning.
Therapy or coaching?
A coach (or "Behavioral Consultant") is trained to help you create and implement sustainable changes to improve your life. Our coaches are familiar with neurodivergent patterns of perceiving and processing, making them an ideal choice for neurodivergent clients seeking clarity, personal growth, and beneficial change.
Our coaches regularly consult with our clinical team to remain actively informed in the field of mental health. In addition to preparing coaches to work effectively with neurodivergent clients, this also prepares coaches to more effectively stay within the boundaries of coaching and identify when clients may be better served by other members of the clinical team. When clinically appropriate, active coaching clients receive wait-list priority for therapists within our team. The strong working relationships between coaches and therapists at HMH also allows for a collaborative approach to promoting behavioral change and mental health; clients may select to work with both a coach and a therapist from the HMH team to accelerate growth and address challenges across multiple areas.
