You are the hero of your story.
We see you. You’re smart. You’ve already come so far and overcome so much. You have what it takes to live a fantastic life. However, you know having the right tools and support system will make it quicker and easier to live the life you want. We’re here to gently help you be your true self and thrive.
We are humble, down-to-earth and grateful for the opportunity to serve you. Just so you know, we don’t see ourselves as “therapists” helping “clients.” We are real people supporting real people. You are whole and complete, just as you are.
You need a safe place where you are accepted, just as you are.
Inspire is a safe, loving place for all people in all bodies. We celebrate and affirm all backgrounds, faiths and identities. We know it can be difficult to find support when you may feel alone, misunderstood, overlooked or marginalized. We are here with open arms, hearts and minds to hear you as you bravely give voice to your story and plan for your future. Your therapist will help you feel safe and accepted so you can shine wherever you go in this world.
You deserve a full team of support in your life.
We believe a team approach is best for your support. Our highly-trained therapists collaborate with parents, school professionals, doctors, families, couples and loved ones, to provide a full circle of support in your life. We also have a Psychiatry Team who can collaborate with your therapist to tailor a comprehensive and flexible plan that’s uniquely best for you. No matter what, we have you covered!
