Most people come into therapy because they are in a place of crisis, often pain, and therapy is their last resort. To let yourself be vulnerable with a stranger is hard, but overcoming stigma can make it even harder.

​

We see a strength and a fortitude in the person who walks over that threshold of fear and humility. It takes a hidden strength to ask for help and to allow yourself to be vulnerable. Asking for help is the first step in a journey that leads to new destination and better outcome.

​

We find that when clients find a therapist whom they can trust, feel comfortable with, and feel a sense of hope in the therapist’s expertise, they become empowered to open up to see the possibilities of hope and change.
