About Us

At Pacific Heartwood Wellness, our name and philosophy are rooted in two of nature's metaphors – the steadfast heartwood of a tree and the flexible, flowing ocean.

Just as the heartwood forms the foundation of a tree, it is our belief that the strength to heal and grow resides within each individual. The heartwood at the center helps it remain resilient, weathering the most ferocious of storms, with the ability in nature to support an incredible amount of weight. This is the spirit we recognize in our patients and the community we serve, reminding us every day of the inherent resilience of the human spirit.

We also believe that the journey towards mental health is not about rigidity, but fluid adaptability, reflected in the image of the ever-flowing ocean. The ocean’s strength lies in its ability to shape itself around obstacles, to ebb and flow with the lunar pull, to build life in its depth, and to find calm after every storm. It is this spirit of flexibility, of constant transformation and adaptation, that forms the core of our approach to mental health.

Our mission is to provide a compassionate and supportive environment where individuals can find or access their inherent strength and learn to adapt to life's changes and challenges. We partner with our patients, offering them the tools to navigate their unique journeys, whether this is the first time they have ever sought support or they are very familiar with these tools and looking for a different experience.  Our job is to meet you where you are.

Our team of dedicated professionals, rooted in the values of empathy, respect, and understanding, strive to embody these tenets, bringing a wealth of experience, expertise and evidence-based practices in varied areas of mental health. They are committed to providing personalized care, fostering resilience, promoting healing, and enhancing well-being.
