Our Mission
Embrace Personal Wellness was founded with two clear goals in mind:
Provide best-in-class mental health services
Reduce negative stigma around mental health
We believe that we cannot achieve one of these goals without also achieving the other.
We are dedicated to ensuring that our clients receive the best in mental health care. Our therapists have over 35 years of experience in treating a wide variety of clinical cases. The experience of our clinicians, complemented by our proprietary treatment effectiveness methodology, allows our team to ensure that our treatment plan is tailored to each client’s specific needs. This way, our team can focus on what really matters- providing our clients with mental health services that work and that they can be proud of.
