Trauma lives in the body long after the initial incident or moment(s) of crisis and trauma can be repressed for years only to showcase itself when triggered. Long-term effects of trauma impact everything from social behavior to the body, to the brain. Without consistent and specific trauma-informed healing resources, a person can suffer their entire life leading to a fragmented life.

The current state of the world has us living in cycles of trauma and re-traumatization over and over as rates of abuse and trauma have skyrocketed under COVID19. We are providing a safe healing community globally, NOW. 

For far too long, trauma healing has been a lifestyle commodity outside the reach of many of the people who need it the most. High-quality trauma-informed healing resources tend to live in spaces of privilege, further widening the divide between whose trauma healing is addressed and the cost & burden of seeking healing is almost always placed on the person needing it most.

 These are not long-term solutions.

We Believe Community is Self Care.

Whether you’re a survivor of trauma or just looking to enhance your mental health and wellness, our amazing community and unlimited self-paced tools and resources are there for you when and where you need them the most.

We’re on a mission to make mental health care accessible and available for everyone.

By leveraging existing technology we are able to deliver high quality Virtual Care through digital programming, increased access to mental health care, and a growing community of support & connection.

Your support will help us decrease the barriers to Virtual Care and Community for trauma survivors everywhere by allowing us to make the community portion of our platform free.

We have a VISION for change and we believe that belongs in OUR hands at this time. Crowdfunding allows us to raise funds to expand the Phoenix reach NOW, not later on.

Your support will help us decrease the barriers to Virtual Care and Community for trauma survivors everywhere by allowing us to make our community platform free to anyone that needs us.
