At Bristlecone Therapy, We Are:

OUR VALUES

RELATIONSHIP-FOCUSED

"Through others we become ourselves." — Lev Vygotsky

Humans are wired for relationship. We cannot know ourselves apart from our relationships. We thrive in community and suffer in isolation. It is through relationships that we experience our deepest pain and greatest healing. We are not able to experience wholeness when our most important relationships are broken.

BODY-INFORMED

"The body speaks clearly to those who know how to listen." — Pat Ogden

Our bodies are very good. We cannot be separated from our bodies. In our bodies we experience both pleasure and pain. Sometimes our bodies hold memories that we are not consciously aware of; when this happens we need help to release these memories from where they have gotten stuck inside us.

SPIRITUALLY SENSITIVE

"If you don't find God in the next person you meet, it is a waste of time looking for him further." — Mahatma Gandhi

Spirituality is an inherent part of what it means to be human. To deny this part of ourselves is to deny an essential aspect of our humanity. We yearn for communion with the divine. We seek to make meaning of our experiences in and through our spiritual beliefs and practices.
