More than a
therapy practice

We're a refuge — not a clinic. Our team believes healing happens in relationship, and we've built every part of this practice to reflect that.

01

A team of specialized therapists

With multiple clinicians on staff, we can match you to the right therapist for your specific situation — not just whoever has an opening.

02

Uniquely beautiful, healing environment

Our 1846 stone house was intentionally designed to feel warm, not clinical. Many clients say just walking in helps them breathe easier.

03

Truly inclusive — everyone belongs here

We provide affirming care for all backgrounds, identities, and family structures. LGBTQ+ affirming. Culturally responsive.
