I offer an affordable mental health support that is different than the traditional clinical model.
Every journey toward recovery and mental wellness is unique. Experience support that puts you and your needs, dreams, and personal story at the center. We aim to offer a ‘safer’ space for people to find mental health and recovery support outside of the clinical model by connecting with those who have lived experience. At The Roots LLC’s vision is to offer various options and supportive pathways to recovery from one on one sessions with certified peer specialists to group support to art parties! By cultivating empowering and supportive relationships between those with lived experience, building community in an age when that’s hard to come by, and fostering multiple pathways to wellness, we can help uplift people and walk beside them as they build healthy, happy lives that align with their personal goals and dreams. We also can act as a resource and advocate for mental health and recovery awareness., provide training and support to businesses, and (very soon!) act as a community space for gathering.
