We believe that clients are best understood and supported in the context of their relationships. We do not discriminate or refuse services to anyone on the basis of their socioeconomic status, age, culture, ethnicity, gender, religion or sexual orientation. We respect the rights of clients and safeguard client confidence as permitted by law.
