- Therapeutic Approach
Collaborative Growth and Healing
Our Approach to Therapy
We practice from a trauma-informed, relational, and anti-oppressive framework. This means we take into account not only your personal experiences, but also the broader systems and identities that shape your life.
We work collaboratively with you, focusing on building trust, deepening insight, and creating meaningful, lasting change. Therapy here is not about fixing you. It’s about understanding you and supporting your growth in a way that feels authentic and empowering.
Fees & Insurance
We are an out-of-network practice, which allows us to provide flexible, personalized care without the limitations often imposed by insurance companies. Depending on your plan, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement.
We also offer a limited number of sliding scale spots to help make therapy more accessible.
