Where it started

Healing Gardens Counseling Center

During a hiking trip to the Pacific Northwest, I came across nursing logs, fallen trees that despite their death support new life within them for almost 500 years or more.  Through the cracks of the fallen tree, a garden bed of new life can spring up.  Roots of surrounding trees can grab hold of the nursing log to continue to sustain life.  Where there are multiple nursing logs, it can be referred to as healing gardens. 

I was inspired by the lessons we can learn from nature to create a space where people can feel and express the hardships they have endured while also having a healing environment where one can grow and move through challenges.  You may be someone who is experiencing mental health issues due to being impacted by experiences from the past or present, but you are not someone who needs to be fixed because you are not broken.  Just like the fallen trees, you can live a full life with new beginnings and joyful experiences despite the difficulties you have faced.  Healing Gardens Counseling Center will not reduce you to just symptoms but consider your whole person and provide holistic care that meets your specific needs by offering the most up-to-date forms of treatment for your needs.
