Anchored in Hope
Anchor Point Therapy is a faith-based boutique psychotherapy practice based in Mission Bay. ​
With over 15 years of experience working with youth, we help teens and young adults navigate today’s most common challenges while staying grounded in who they are, where they come from, and their identity in God.
