We offer a warm, inclusive space where children, teens, adults, and families can find support, healing, and resilience.
Our Cottage Grove therapists provide thoughtful, customized care for individuals and families facing life’s challenges.

Whether you’re seeking help for a specific concern or simply need a space to be heard, we’re here to support your emotional well-being with compassion and expertise.
Adolescence can be overwhelming—for teens and their families. Our teen counseling services in Cottage Grove are designed to support young people as they explore identity, relationships, and emotional regulation. We create a safe space for teens to process their experiences and build confidence, while also offering guidance to parents and caregivers navigating this pivotal stage of development.
We are honored to serve LGBTQIA+ clients in Cottage Grove with affirming, identity-conscious care. Our therapists—many of whom are queer-identified or queer-allied—understand the unique experiences faced by LGBTQIA+ youth, adults, and families. We offer both individual and group therapy tailored to support gender-diverse and queer clients in their journey toward healing and self-understanding.
Young children express themselves best through play—and that’s how we connect. Our therapists use play-based approaches to help children in Cottage Grove work through grief, anxiety, big emotions, or major life changes. We also work closely with caregivers to provide tools, understanding, and support at home, so families can grow stronger together.
Families face all kinds of transitions and challenges, and it’s okay to ask for support. Our family therapy services help Cottage Grove families improve communication, work through conflict, and build deeper understanding across generations. Whether you’re dealing with a specific issue or just want to strengthen your relationships, we’re here to help every member of your family feel seen and heard.
Trauma can affect every part of life, even long after the event has passed. At Sentier Psychotherapy in Cottage Grove, we offer trauma-informed care that helps individuals process and heal in a safe, empowering environment. Using talk therapy and body-based methods, we help clients release painful memories and reclaim their sense of control, connection, and peace.
Connection is a powerful form of healing. Our group counseling options in Cottage Grove bring together individuals who are experiencing similar challenges—such as anxiety, identity exploration, or grief—to share, learn, and grow in community. Group therapy offers unique benefits, including peer support, new perspectives, and a reminder that you’re not alone.
If something feels off or out of balance, individual therapy can help you explore what’s going on beneath the surface. In Cottage Grove, our therapists work one-on-one with clients to address issues like anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-worth, and more. Whether you’re working through a crisis or simply seeking personal growth, we’re here to support your journey forward.

Levi Weinhagen is such a thoughtful and down to earth therapist. He connects with young adults like few people I’ve met, and makes it easy for them to feel safe. He brings his background in theatre and comedy into his work, which adds a unique, creative perspective to what can be heavy work. As a parent and a teacher, I heartily recommend him to adolescents and adults alike!
