trauma peer support

Peer-Support

Peer-support may be right for you if you do not want treatment or a diagnosis, do not need/qualify for insurance reimbursement or coverage, or prefer to keep your services from being documented with any other organization. Peer-support specialists are not therapists and do not provide any medical care. They each have unique skills and lived experiences that can supplement clinical therapy or independently offer support for life stressors

remote outpatient therapy

Intensive Out-Patient (IOP) Alternative

Beginning Summer 2025, we will be offering a 6-week therapeutic intensive for clients who need more than weekly talk therapy to meet their goals but do not qualify for Intensive Out-Patient (IOP) services. Our non-traditional IOP program is meant to provide optimal support with less disruption to your daily life. The IOP alternative program is limited to 10 clients per cohort. It includes individual clinical therapy, group clinical therapy, and elective activities to support your mental health journey

arts-based healing events

Hinterlands Electives

Healing requires community, creativity, and inspiration. Our therapy electives are meant to supplement your process. Electives are non-clinical activities, workshops, social events, and skill-shares to support practical skill development, community-building, and joy during healing.
