Our mission is to help people be their best selves…
…live their best lives, and have meaningful relationships through therapy and mental health advocacy. We believe that providing an authentic therapeutic relationship and a non-judgemental safe place allows the most optimal opportunity for people to grow. We believe that advocating for social injustice, and mental health awareness changes the stigma and creates individual, family, and community wellness.

“The acronym is a guide to what I believe can be a process, a method in finding our true selves.”
“Our wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful part of us.”
