Tova Harkham

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Utilizing compassion, and authenticity, therapy can become a collaborative journey of personal growth where meaningful conversations strengthen one's ability to foster a connection with self that allows them to be a more active participant in their life

About Me

I provide a collaborative space where clients can learn to strengthen their relationship with themselves & critically examine narratives that may no longer be serving them. As a clinician who is also a mom, I have the ability to hold more than 1 perspective at the same time allowing space for clients to use their curiosity & explore their preferred selves.
