💙 Meet Desiree, Our LMFT Associate 💙

Life isn’t always easy, and sometimes, "pushing through" isn’t enough. That’s where Desiree comes in. As a therapist, she strives to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves.

We’re so excited to have Desiree on our team and know her compassionate approach will make a real impact.

International Self-Care Day is a reminder that caring for your mental and emotional well-being is essential—not optional.

At our practice, we honor that self-care looks different for everyone, especially for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals navigating unique stressors and systemic challenges. You deserve rest, support, and healing—on your terms.
