Baseline Therapeutic Services LLC is a therapeutic program locally owned and operated by Jonathan M. Blackwell-Rodgers Gurst, LCSW.
The program is designed to meet the needs of our community through various forms of expression, connection, socialization, and creativity with both individual and group sessions.
All groups are geared toward positive, healthy, and creative outlets. We enhance lives through building confidence, self-awareness, social support, acceptance, and understanding. Routine, structure, and consistency are reinforced through active play and hands on learning.
