Each life contains times of transition and uncertainty: some of joy and re-building, some of pain and struggle. Our beliefs about ourselves are often rooted in experiences of mis-attunement (not being seen for who we are) and oppression. Therapy that is attuned to us as individuals provides a pathway to resilience, growth, and healing. In partnership with you, our therapists build an affirming, safe, wholistic, and respectful alliance to use in fostering a stronger sense of your connection with yourself. We believe that each of us can create more meaningful, satisfying relationships with ourselves and others.
