Beyond Healing Center is a therapy group committed to helping people find safety in connection through embodied healing practices. We practice an interdisciplinary health care approach that invites healers from various disciplines to join together under a shared language and conceptualization approach where interventions can be thoughtfully co-discovered and contextualized in the therapeutic journey. Our team is constantly growing which brings rich new disciplines to the treatment setting including psychotherapy, movement and yoga, massage, art, and physical wellness.
The Beyond Healing Team is made up of clinicians, practitioners, and healers from an ever expanding array of traditions. We all work together through an integrated approach that brings the wisdom of these traditions to the treatment setting all intended to help you find relief and healing that lasts a lifetime.
At Beyond Healing Center we are focused on holistic wellness for every human we come into contact with. This includes the clients we serve, the healers we employ, and the general community. Each of the services we offer are wildly diverse but are connected in their vision for wellness.
