Our Mission

At Kaleidoscope we believe that just as each member of a family is unique, so is the family’s whole. Rather than ignore the complexity of your family system, we embrace it, providing support from multiple therapeutic disciplines to improve your family’s functioning and wellbeing. Our name comes from the kaleidoscope, which has the ability to transform disparate elements into something cohesive and beautiful.
