Welcome to Center for Authentic Living
Mental Health and Energy Healing
Holistic Healing Modalities for Mental Health and Wellness
We are honored to assist you on your path to your most authentic self! Our philosophy is based in compassion and mindfulness. A mindful based perspective helps us to understand the root of our conditions, the meaning behind them, and provides us with a doorway into out core. We invite you to develop a sense of curiosity into your life, relationships, and behaviors. This will give you greater clarity as you approach your true orientated life.
We had a dream of creating a space where health care was a warm, welcoming space with gifted practitioners who listened carefully and provided effective treatment to help you live your best quality life.
Our clinical care team offers integrative specialized treatment with the objective of creating a connection between body mind, preventative medicine, individualized and collaborative care, a treatment team approach, traditional and indigenious wisdom, and an innate ability to heal.
We offer this innovative treatment for children, adolescents, teens, adults, couples, and families.
