“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”
-Eleanor Roosevelt

We are real therapists providing services for real people. We hope to teach all of our clients that they do not have to do this perfectly – taking care of your mental health is a practice that requires self-compassion, humor, and flexibility. We want our clients to feel accepted as they are while working toward change.
