"To me, a therapist is a breathing, walking library. Because of the nature of the work, what makes it's transformative, is a therapist hears all that is unspeakable + sees the parts of a person that are not shareable. We see and hear all darkest + scariest truths -with love + kindness. 

We are secret keepers, witnesses, + containers for all things that people are exhausted from carrying alone.

I am a living library because I carry all of these stories with me and I am changed by each, as much as they may be changed by me."
- Jo Richardson, LMSW
