We are currently seeing clients both via telehealth and in person. Preference is given to candidates who are willing to have some in-person clients.

Our practice is primarily focused on helping folks who have experienced trauma work through it. We are also interested in building our services for parents who may be experiencing perinatal mood disorders. We tend to do long-term work as we stress the importance of the relationship with the client and find that it takes time to establish trust in trauma work.

Preference will be given to candidates with training in the areas of trauma and perinatal mood disorders (PSI training).

Dr. Fruhauff, the practice owner, is a collaborative, relational therapist. She is looking for colleagues who will share her values of warmth, humor, genuineness, and honesty. We seek to provide client and community care that is anti-oppressive and acknowledges the importance of honoring social, economic, and cultural differences.  We strive to practice in a manner that is LGBTQ+ affirming, body neutral, and reflective of disability justice and intersectional feminist values.
