History

Healing Connections Therapy Center began long before its establishment in 1999 as the dream for a center where a variety of professionals could come together to learn, work, consult, and share experiences  with the goal of helping individuals who experience debilitating mental illnesses that are not helped.
 
So the dream of Healing Connections was formed. By combining standard cognitive behavioral therapeutic techniques with the newer dialectical behavior therapy, medication evaluation and management, and body centered therapies our clinicians are creating a therapeutic community in which clinician, client, and families are working together to heal and grow.

We began small, in one office and now have moved into a new facility where we have room for individual, family and group therapy. Our staff includes licensed psychologists, a marriage and family therapist, a clinical social worker, mental health practitioners, nurse practitioners, masters prepared therapists working toward licensure, masters prepared mental health interns, and three adjunct staff including a dietitian, a licensed psychologist who teaches spirituality in our Intensive Life Skills Program, and a consulting psychiatrist. In addition we have a full time office manager who holds both staff and clients together with her capable manner and enthusiastic energy. She is joined by two part time assistants who keep our files impeccably in order, and a billing specialist who handles the daunting job of working with insurance companies and clients to assure their financial issues are dealt with promptly and efficiently.

In a safe, environment our clients are learning not only skills and behavioral changes that will initially help them to decrease their present difficulties, but also ways in which they can use their whole person to reinvest in the future while healing the past and enjoying the here and now.

As we think it is a privilege to share in our clients’ lives, so too we think it is a privilege for our clients to experience the caring community of professionals who are dedicating their lives to providing quality caring services for them.
