About Us
We are here to walk with you...
Our heart is to see you be the best version of yourself. To that end, we try to be our best version as well. Here is a bit about who we are.
Both founders have served people in healing modalities for many years on college campuses, church congregations, and nonprofit organizations. Seeing an increasing need for these services around us, we decided to offer our services to a wider context.
Meet the Clinicians
Tired of being exhausted emotionally, mentally and/or physically? Work has you down, and is your family lacking in understanding? Are childhood traumas from the past keeping you from moving on in your life? Does your body feel aches and pains and you wake up tired, as if you did not sleep at all?
If any of the above resonates with you, then you have come to the right place to find relief, address debilitating symptoms and uncover underlying root issues. We look forward to serving you.
