Mental Health & Wellness
Our Wellness Team is dedicated to preserving, strengthening, and promoting traditional healing practices while supporting the overall well-being of our community. By bringing together time-honoured cultural teachings and contemporary wellness approaches, we provide holistic, culturally grounded support for mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health.
We support individuals facing addictions, mental health challenges, and other life struggles by offering compassionate guidance and access to meaningful healing opportunities. Rooted in Xatśūll values, traditions, and ways of knowing, our programs create a safe and respectful space where individuals can reconnect with their culture, strengthen their resilience, and find balance in their lives.
Our programs and services include:
- Treatment Applications, Detox Referrals & Medical Liaison: Assistance navigating treatment options, accessing detox services, and connecting with medical support.
- Cultural Practices & Traditional Healing: Sweat Lodge, Smudging, Land-Based Therapies (IFOT), and access to our Traditional Medicine Dispensary.
- One-on-One Support: Individualized spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical support.
- Recovery & Peer Support: Access to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Wellbriety meetings.
Through traditional teachings, land-based healing, group healing circles, and connections to trusted support providers, we walk alongside individuals on their healing journeys. Our goal is to strengthen connections to culture, community, and traditional ways of life while supporting healing, balance, and wellness in all aspects of life.
