I welcome and value diversity in my practice and aim to make a safe space for adult clients from diverse racial, ethnic, cultural, socioeconomic, and religious backgrounds and affirm those who identify as LGBTQIA+. I stand against social injustice and discrimination in all its forms including racism, ageism, ableism, sexism, patriarchy, white supremacy, and white nationalism. I believe humility is especially important here. While I have worked to be a culturally competent therapist, I recognize I am a white, cis gender, straight, middle age, woman who comes from a Christian blue-collar background and am privileged. I welcome open dialogue about our differences and feedback when my perspective misses yours.
