Vision
We believe that access to therapy should be a right and not a luxury. We want to give you a service that we would want for ourselves. We want to build relationships, not client lists. The most powerful therapy is the therapy that includes and empowers you. Therapy that helps you play, create, communicate, work and feel safe. We don’t design therapy plans for people. We design therapy plans with people. Together we want to create a meaningful life

The Sea Turtle
The symbolism and meaning behind the SWAT spirit animal.
The Sea Turtle is a very ancient soul living in the seas, land turtles make their home the deserts and the forests. Turtle spirit animal gracefully teaches us the art of adapting to new surroundings and environments. The Sea Turtle opens us up to experimenting with new terrains and ideas while maintaining a comfortable pace.
Turtles live a very long and fruitful life and teach the spiritual significance of taking the very best care of themselves and having a long life filled with splendid journeys, having learnt many valuable life lessons.
We wish you well as you start your journey and hope you thrive!
