FAQ
What kind of healing techniques will be used?
We utilize many ways that allow for learning about mental health and wellness. Our programs are integrative, holistic, and culturally relevant to the community we serve.
What do you mean by integrative and holistic?
Integrative and holistic wellness is approaching healing by looking at all parts of the human experience (mental, emotional, physical, spiritual), utilizing a wide range of fields and techniques to bring about harmony for the whole person.

Our workshops and programs are public, as we have an open-door policy. However, what happens during these programs and services does not leave our center.
