The Collective
who we are
The Collective is a group of private practice mental health therapists who believe in providing a safe space for those in our community, including those who have traumatic therapeutic experiences in the past. Our goal is to make our office warm, welcoming, and fun.
what we do
The Collective is made of up LMFT's, LISW's, LMSW's, and LMHC's. Our clinicians provide therapy to adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families. We offer a variety of therapeutic approaches. We provide a safe space for those who identify within the LGBTQ+ and queer community. We respect and celebrate sexual and cultural diversity.
