About
Opening September 2026
Opening in September 2026. Colorful Perspectives Therapy was founded in 2026 when, after 5 years at larger companies, I decided I could best serve my ideal clients in a solo private practice. Specializing in serving LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent teens and adults, I strive to create a welcoming environment where you can share at your pace. Prefer the overhead lights dimmed during session? Want to work on a craft while discussing identity, communication, or life stressors? Need less eye contact while we talk? I'm open to suggestions in making therapy a better experience for you.
