Why We Need The Hope Model?
Mental health disabilities have increased by more than 550% in the last 70 years despite an unprecedented rise in psychoactive medicine use.
Whether it is a preoccupation with failed parenting or unsupported theories of chemical imbalances, what has developed is a denial of the broader environmental and social forces that have changed the landscape of how we live and experience the world.
Modern psychiatry focuses on a disease model that says your genes or your childhood are your fate.
In reality, science shows that the problem is not in you, it is the way we are living, and we can recover completely under the right conditions.
Our Philosophy
Symptoms tell a story
Chronic states of stress and inflammation held in our bodies arise from our unresolved trauma and grief as well as lifestyle choices, poor food quality and the diminishment of community and meaningful values we need to feel whole.
Everyone has an innate capacity to heal
When we empower individuals with the proper support and challenge we evolved to need from life, we uncover our innate capacity to heal and can experience mental health recovery completely.
Integrity is Health
When we bring our past, our temperament and family story, current lifestyle and our vision for our lives into flow we restore our innate wholeness and innate capacity to heal naturally.
Community can help you heal
Authenticity and belonging are our natural state. When we restore a sense of belonging, our unique gifts, sense of purpose and service to our community can provide us with the capacity to be whole ourselves.
Complete Transformation and Mental Health Recovery are the norm, we are designed for change, this is the natural state, to heal is what we do, and to evolve, change and innovate is what it means to become complete and whole.
