Kimeiko Hotta Dover

I am a spouse, parent, retired college professor & mixed-race woman committed to anti-oppressive, inclusive, trauma-informed, and harm-reduction values.
​​
My training as a psychodynamic psychotherapist includes 300+ hours of individual and group therapy. This ensures that I support you safely and effectively; helps me appreciate your vulnerability, effort, and progress; and equips me to share the best of the many approaches, tools, and strategies I’ve experienced.
