Vision
After years of clinical experience, we know that recovery requires a unique setting that balances volume, power and acuity.
Volume
We stay small, with a maximum capacity of 300 active patients at all times. You can expect focused support and a close partnership with your doctor.
Patient Power
We are a truly private setting, with no health insurance contracts, and no third-party involvement. Only you and your doctor have say over what, when and how your treatment takes place.
Acuity
We take time to get to know you from a broad, holistic perspective, rather than a narrow, clinical view. By better understanding you, we can tailor psychological and psychiatric services to include counseling, medications and neuromodulation.
