WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
Companies that provide mental health rehabilitation services focus on assisting individuals with maintaining community stability and independence in the most appropriate, least restrictive environment. We believe that clients desire more than maintaining community stabilization; they also want and deserve to live the life they truly desire. Most clients have developed learned helplessness from a perceived absence of control over their lives. Our focus is not only to help individuals become stabilized in the community but to also help them live the highest version of themselves through empowerment and self-actualization. We want individuals to realize their full potential. Our goal is to assist clients in understanding the importance we place on addressing the needs of the individual holistically, through integrated and evidence-based training, and the client-centered holistic approach we use in the provision of services. We believe that we can help clients become a creator as opposed to remaining a victim of their circumstances. We will help clients express their creativity, learn to be powerful, whole, resourceful and the writer of their own story. We are committed to motivating individuals to believe in themselves so that they may achieve the highest version of themselves.
WE WANT OUR CLIENTS TO THRIVE, NOT JUST SURVIVE.

HELPFUL TIPS
Are You Living Up
To Your Full Potential?
In times of strife or uncertainty, it is easy to beat yourself up – to think you’re not good enough. It is even easier to forget that despite all of our differences we are born with one very important thing is common: potential – and lots of it. What seems difficult, at times, is remembering this potential for greatness lies within us all.
Tips for Teaching Functional Skills
Encourage the person to do as much as possible for themselves. Know each person’s goals and objectives and consistently implement formal and informal training.
“Teach” people rather than “do” for them. Be a good role model. Offer opportunities for choice. Look at every interaction as an opportunity to teach something
