A Place of Healing, Hope and Belonging
Core Values
Hope
We believe that no story is too broken to be rewritten. Hope is the foundation of our work, empowering children, teens, and families to envision a future beyond pain and hardship.
Healing
We recognize the deep wounds caused by trauma and loss. Healing is not a linear journey but a process of safety, trust, and restoration. Our practice is committed to walking with clients through every step toward wholeness.
Belonging
Every person deserves to know they matter and that they have a place where they are loved, accepted, and seen. We cultivate spaces of belonging where foster and adoptive youth and families can find connection, stability, and identity.
OUR COMMITMENT
Our practice is dedicated to walking alongside adolescents, and families impacted by foster care, kinship care, adoption, and the lasting effects of early childhood trauma. We recognize that these experiences shape every aspect of identity, relationships, and daily life. With a trauma-informed and attachment-based approach, we provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their stories, build resilience, and develop practical tools for emotional regulation, self-understanding, and relational healing.
We specialize in supporting foster, kinship and adoptive families as they navigate complex transitions, grief and loss, identity development, and the unique challenges of parenting children with trauma histories. Through evidence-based interventions—such as trauma-focused CBT, DBT skills, IFS, EMDR, play therapy, and expressive modalities—we equip clients to move from surviving to thriving.
Our therapists understand the weight carried by youth who have experienced instability, as well as the deep commitment of caregivers who step into these journeys. We honor both with compassion, advocacy, and individualized treatment tailored to each client’s needs.
