Who We Are

Reclaiming Hope Wellness Center is a mental health practice dedicated to pursuing actions and initiatives that promote equality, diversity, and inclusivity. Our practice is committed to being anti-racist. We recognize that racism exists in many forms and that we all have a responsibility to actively work against it. We will not tolerate any form of discrimination or prejudice based on race, and we will continue to educate ourselves and others on how we can be better allies and advocates for racial justice. We are committed to supporting and affirming the LGBTQIA+ community. We believe that everyone should be able to bring their whole selves to session without fear of discrimination or harassment, and we will continue to advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights both within and outside of our practice. We believe that everyone has the right to choose the relationship style that works best for them and support and affirm individuals who engage in CNM (consensual non-monogamy), and we believe that society should do more to destigmatize and normalize consensual non-monogamous relationships.
