Common questions
Something else on your mind? Reach out and we will answer directly.
Does HEALS provide therapy or medication management?
Not yet. Today HEALS provides behavioral health education, professional education, caregiver resources, and workshops. Clinical services such as psychiatric evaluations and medication management are planned once PMHNP licensure is complete.
Who is HEALS for?
Individuals who want to understand their own mental health, families and caregivers supporting a loved one, and healthcare professionals seeking education and resilience training.
Is the content on this site medical advice?
No. Everything here is educational. It does not replace evaluation, diagnosis, or treatment by a licensed clinician, and reading it does not create a clinician-patient relationship.
Can HEALS speak at our organization, school, or congregation?
Yes. Presentations and workshops are available for healthcare organizations, community groups, schools, churches, synagogues, and professional associations.
How can I follow what HEALS is building?
Join the newsletter for monthly education and milestone updates, or read The Future of HEALS for the long-term vision.
