“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”
― Carl R. Rogers, On Becoming a Person: A Therapist's View of Psychotherapy
We're an out-of-network self pay practice by choice — and here's why.
Effective therapy takes time, privacy, and the freedom to do the work that actually matters. Being out-of-network lets us protect all three for your benefit. Our goal is a strong match — someone you feel safe enough with to take the risks that real change requires.
