We believe in deep healing. We talk, but we also provide practical tools to help you heal.

As therapists, we recognize the power dynamics implicit in our roles. We commit to continually listening, assessing, and addressing the ways in which our identities, actions, and processes can impact each other.

As therapists, that means we take care of each other so that we can be present with clients. With clients, that means we continually look for ways to build, recognize the strengths of, and connect them to their surrounding community.
