At Moving Forward, Staying Present, great therapy starts with well-supported therapists. Founded in 2020, drawing on over a decade of private practice experience, we've built a connected, sustainable space where clinicians thrive - so that you receive thoughtful, high-quality care. Our team is made up primarily of experienced, fully licensed therapists, alongside registered-associate clinicians who receive strong mentorship and training. We are a diverse group of warm, intelligent, humorous, and authentic individuals who represent a wide range of lived identities, including race, gender, sexuality, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
Moving Forward, Staying Present is a therapist-founded practice built on the belief that well-supported clinicians provide better care. We offer individual, couples, family, and group therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, ADHD, OCD, insomnia, and more.
We believe therapy is a collaboration. You are the expert on your own life - we're here to walk alongside you toward meaningful change. Our therapists are committed to ongoing learning and self-reflection, delivering effective, evidence-based care in a space where you feel heard, valued, and safe. We would love to support you.
