My letter to
the community

Being a child therapist has been the most incredible, humbling, and transformative experience of my life. How lucky am I to play, connect, and hold space for children as they navigate their healing journey? As therapists, we carry the weight of our young clients’ experiences, yet we continue to hold hope—hope for attuned families, for healing communities, and for a future built on connection and understanding.

"I often find myself using what I learned from you."

"I'm now working with the county's Foster Youth Team, still getting settled into my role, but I constantly find myself applying what I learned from you. I feel genuinely prepared because of your guidance, and I’m incredibly grateful."
