Our Core Services
Clinical Music & Hypnotherapy
Music is one of the most powerful tools for emotional regulation, communication, and healing. Using evidence-based Trancework, we help clients with mental health challenges and developmental disabilities reduce anxiety, build focus, and break through limiting patterns — without medication or traditional talk therapy.
We use this evidence-based, client-centered technique to help individuals clarify their goals, strengthen their motivation, and commit to meaningful change — ideal for those navigating mental health recovery or career transitions.
Job Coaching & Consulsting
Specialized job coaching for individuals with developmental disabilities and mental health challenges — from resume building and interview prep to workplace accommodations and on-the-job support. We also offer HR Consulting Services to advise on ADA and workplace satisfaction and engagment through stay and exit interviewing.
Our peer coaching model connects clients with trained coaches who have lived experience — providing relatable guidance, accountability, and education that empowers individuals to advocate for themselves and advance in life and work.
We help students — including those with learning differences or mental health challenges — explore career paths, develop professional skills, and navigate the transition from school to the workforce with confidence.
Safe TEA- Threat Evaluation & Assessments
We provide professional threat evaluation and assessment services for organizations and businesses focused on workplace safety and security screening. Our trained specialists identify risk factors, assess behavioral threat indicators, and deliver actionable recommendations to help organizations maintain safe, supportive work environments.

Before tea, I had given up on finding a job that worked for me. Coach TD's peer coaching and job support gave me real tools and real confidence. I've been employed for eight months now and I finally feel like I belong in my workplace.Marcus .
My son has a developmental disability and struggled socially and professionally for years. tea's music therapy and motivational interviewing changed everything. He is more communicative, more motivated, and recently started a part-time job he loves.Priya N.
I had no idea what direction to go after high school. TEA's career counseling helped me figure out my strengths, navigate my options, and land an internship in a field I'm actually excited about. I wish I had found them sooner.Jordan T.
