Seen through the eyes of those who know me.

Words shared by fellow professionals

Reflections from colleagues and mentors who’ve worked closely with Dr. Hake.

These words were shared by fellow professionals, clinicians, supervisors, and collaborators, who’ve had the opportunity to witness my work firsthand. I share them here with gratitude and humility, as reminders of the values I bring to this practice: deep listening, sincere presence, and a commitment to understanding each person as a whole and complex human being.
