WHO WE ARE

ABOUT US

 

Steady Hope officially opened its door to the Oakhurst office space in January 2021, founded with the mission to create a safe space for you to share your unique story and background. It is our desire that you can learn to be present in your daily life and persevere with hope toward a future. With each session, we value collaborative approaches to our therapeutic work and encourage professional excellence. Our team practices from a holistic perspective and believes that every part of your life is interconnected.

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all the darkness”

Why Steady Hope?

The practice name Steady Hope was first coined in 2018 as our founder considered the work of being a therapist. As she considered her role in mental health, she recognized that many clients seek out therapy when they are feeling hopeless - maybe not about life in general - but typically around one area of life. She recognized that as a therapist, we have the opportunity to be steady and consistent for our clients. And because of that steadiness, we have an opportunity to be hope holders.

 

As hope holders, we are honored to help clients persevere even when they feel unsure what to hope for. Our role is also to empower clients to explore what they are putting their hope in.

Our clinicians are providers who have a Christian faith background; for us, we believe that God is the ultimate Steady Hope. Our practice values and holds space for clients of all faith backgrounds. Our commitment is to work together so that one result of your therapy might be connecting to your own faith experience as a source of hope.
