Therapy Sessions:
Soul Werk is a safe, non-judgmental healing space where clients can process and release their emotions. Our therapists practice in a holistic and integrative fashion.
What does this mean?
It means we acknowledge and allow space for all parts of our clients to be witnessed, validated, and affirmed. Clients attracted to our services are seeking a better understanding of themselves and their behaviors. They often are struggling with life challenges, emotional distress, and/ or desire support to manage common mental health concerns.

Group Work:
We offer skill-based, psychoeducation group services, as well as process oriented group therapy services. Here at Soul Werk Café we believe healing work is individual and communal. Group therapy provides an opportunity for clients to receive multiple perspectives, support, encouragement and feedback from other individuals in a safe and confidential environment. We aim to provide a safe space for individuals to share and build together. Encouraging individuals to come together, support one another, and learn how to improve the quality of emotional, mental and physical well-being ofthemselves and others together.
* Therapy groups are ideal for those seeking to improve effective communication, healthy
boundaries, self-worth/self-esteem, time-management, and self-care.

Consulting and Corporate Trainings:
Soul Werk is committed to developing and facilitating conversations around mental health and emotional wellness to decrease stigma, promote education, and provide support for resource development and training for community partners and institutions. Training and workshops can be customized and tailored to the needs of specific group or groups.

Consultation:
Consultation is a service that is tailored to the organization and the specific needs of that
organization. Please consider that diversity, equity, and inclusion work is systemic change work. For this reason, we do not offer one session consultations or training. A free 15 minute discovery call is provided to ensure appropriateness of fit.
