From The Beginning

When Lezlee Hays founded the independent practice in 2018, she named it after the neighborhood of orange groves surrounding her first office. She wanted to convey the idea that a grove of trees provides safety and cover. We emphasize in our practice the safety and autonomy of the client in our care, which we hope provides the client the space they need to grow and heal. We have since move to a newer office, but the imagery of the grove remains as an important reminder of our dedication to provide clients a space for safety.
