Our Mission

Diapason is a word made of Greek roots meaning “through” (dia) “all” (pas), and it is typically used to mean the entire scale of an instrument. It can also describe the process of individual notes arising together into harmonies.

At Diapason, we appreciate the importance of each note, and we find that a lot of harm is done to people when they are all expected to sound (or look or act) the same. Therefore, we take the time to truly get to know each person individually so that we can best support them in creating more harmony within themselves, in their relationships, and in their connections to the world around them.

Who do we serve?

At Diapason, our mental health providers have expertise in serving a broad range of people who are seeking support around their identities, presenting issues, and/or diagnoses, all with a neurodiversity affirming approach:

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • General feelings of stuckness

  • Trauma, PTSD, and Complex PTSD

  • Specialized trauma (religious trauma, sexual trauma, childhood abuse, and others)

  • Stress and Burnout

  • Feelings of not belonging / isolation

  • Autism

  • LGBTQIA+

  • Chronic health issues

  • Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)

  • Difficulty in maintaining fulfilling relationships

  • Lack of growth or purpose in your work

  • ADHD

  • Learning disorders

Who are we?

We are a group of highly-trained, empathetic, and attuned professionals who care deeply about the work we do, the people we work with, and the broader state of the communities in which we all live.

And we are people. We live our lives, we have hopes and dreams. We experience struggle, heartbreak, grief, joy, sweetness, and awe. We, too, sit in discomfort, ambiguity, and the unknown. We name all this because we think it is at the heart of our strengths as clinicians.

Because we bring our own humanity into the work we do, we can use our training and expertise to support each of our clients in becoming experts in themselves, by learning to manage the hard parts, to celebrate the great and the wonderful, and to effectively advocate their needs to those around them so that they can be seen and heard.
