About the Center
All the practitioners at The Resiliency Center have independent practices and work mindfully to promote holistic wellness for those served. Bringing a wide spectrum of training backgrounds and diverse orientations to healing, practitioners approach their work from a trauma-informed perspective—this means that they have an understanding of the nature of trauma and its impact on mind, body, and spirit, and that they work respectfully with each individual with that understanding in mind. Through their work, practitioners aspire to facilitate people's ability to be resilient and heal, to create meaningful change in their lives, and to experience greater joy.
