Reclaiming Hope Wellness Center is a trauma-informed mental health practice grounded in equity, inclusion, and care for all people. We are committed to actively undoing systems of oppression — including racism, antisemitism, anti-Zionism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, and all forms of marginalization — both within ourselves and in the world around us.
We recognize that racism and identity-based violence take many forms — subtle, systemic, and overt — and we each carry a responsibility to name and interrupt them. We are committed to ongoing learning and unlearning in service of racial justice, healing, and collective liberation.
We affirm and celebrate the identities and lived experiences of:
- LGBTGEQIAP+ clients
- Clients in non-traditional relationships, including consensual non-monogamy (CNM)
- Neurodivergent and disabled clients
- Clients with diverse spiritual, cultural, and ancestral identities – including Jewish clients navigating faith, legacy burdens, anti-Jewish oppression, antisemitism, and anti-Zionism (both overt and covert)
We believe healing is political, relational, and personal — and that everyone deserves a space where their whole self is seen, honored, and safe.
