Clinic Philosophy

This interdisciplinary clinic and community healing hub has a broad range of services and staff, spanning 10+ disciplines. We specialize in trauma-informed care for veterans and first responders, although we also welcome other community members. The clinic is designed with brain and nervous system recovery top-of-mind, with dimmable soft lighting, infrared heating, a state of the art air exchange system, and collaborative models of care so that you don’t have to keep re-telling your story to each person on the team. We have a gym space for conditioning, a quiet yoga/meditation studio, and a cozy house where we welcome people in for a warm tea alongside our caring mental health professionals. Our clinic also has an East meets West approach, meaning that in addition to the traditional Western Medicine therapies, we also welcome Eastern Therapies like acupuncture, meditation, yoga therapy and bioenergetic treatments. We also host a NeuroLounge, with a variety of technologies that boost cognitive/metabolic health and recovery, with memberships available.
