This is not Therapy

This is not therapy.

For some of us, events in our lives create what modern culture defines as trauma, in all its forms. Some people experience what they defined as mental illnesses, or other forms of psychological distress and imbalance.

In Connect, we honor that, and stay Radically Responsible for the physical and mental safety of our participants.
