Accepting New Clients - We believe that you are the master of your own life and that therapy is a joint process that we can navigate together. We are here to help you develop the tools and understanding needed to create the life you want and meet your goals. Our mission is to provide more accessible services to underserved clients. Our counselors can help with a variety of different concerns, such as struggles related to anxiety, ADHD, autism, depression, self esteem, LGBTQ+ related concerns, self-harm, OCD, substance use, relationship issues, chronic illness, family conflict, and more. We are best reached by email.
Our agency has therapists who use skills from various modalities, such as CBT, ACT, DBT, Mindfulness, Solution-Focus, and others. We have therapists who work with adults and adolescents providing individual therapy. We want to ensure each client and therapist is a good therapeutic fit, and will work with you to find your match!
Many of our therapists are part of the LGBTQ+ community, and have experienced symptoms related to neurodivergence, anxiety, and depression themselves. We hope that our experiences can better help us to understand yours and that we can be an asset to you in your journey to grow and heal. We also prioritize hiring those who are kink and poly aware/friendly.
