We welcome and celebrate the diverse identities, backgrounds, and experiences of our team and the communities we serve—regardless of race, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, pregnancy status, national origin, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

We acknowledge that mental health care has historically included biased practices and systemic barriers, especially for people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, and Indigenous communities. As a practice, we are committed to continuous education and accountability. We actively examine our language, policies, and treatment methods to implement anti-racist, inclusive, and equitable practices across our organization.

Our Core Values

🧠 Collaborative Work Culture

We believe the best ideas come from within. That’s why employee voices matter here. We encourage open feedback and rely on our team to help shape protocols, procedures, and service development.

🌱 Flexibility & Support

We recognize that each person carries unique responsibilities and needs. Our flexible, supportive environment allows for personalized schedules and a healthy work-life balance that adapts to your goals. That is why we start full-time positions at a minimum of 32 hour full time work week comprised of your clinical and associated administrative time. We understand the work you deserves an equal balance of time to decompress and reconnect with yourself, loved ones, and activities you enjoy. We don't find it necessary to keep you for 40 hours when the case load and associated administrative tasks can be achieved in less time.

Our work doesn’t stop at awareness—we are dedicated to action. Through training, team dialogue, and policy review, we continuously evolve to ensure our workplace and clinical practices uphold equity and inclusion.
