the pillars of our treatment philosophy
Community, belonging, meaning and social responsibility are at the heart of our approach to treatment.
community
Galen Hope stands for community in more ways than one. We provide therapy services—including groups and individual sessions—where clients interact with their care partners, therapists, and fellow clients. It is in this togetherness that we hope to facilitate a community of individuals committed to well-being and recovery. In addition, components of the assertive community treatment model are foundational to our program.
As a client of Galen Hope, you will immediately be acknowledged as an individual whose story may not be represented by traditional diagnostic criteria. You may have had previous treatment experiences that left you feeling misunderstood or frustrated. At Galen Hope, we seek to fully understand your life experiences and to provide you with an environment where you feel acknowledged, accepted, and supported. All of our clinical services, while cutting edge and creative, are also designed to create cohesion and interaction among all those who attend and work at Galen Hope.
We find tremendous meaning in bringing you into our circle and helping you recognize the importance you play in our shared connection. Within our circle, you will discover that, although you come to us for help as our client, your presence and your essence brings something to us as well.
belonging
meaning
Human beings tend to fall into three categories when it comes to developing a sense of personal growth and meaning after experiencing adversity. Some individuals are worse off, others stay about the same as they were before the difficult experience, and some seem to grow emotionally, feeling that their adverse experience helped make a positive contribution to their lives. We know that establishing a connection to others, developing a greater awareness of the present, and finding a purpose in an experience can help foster this sense of positive growth.
Treatment at Galen Hope goes beyond just clinical interventions. Our work with clients focuses on developing the whole person and reintegrating them with the people, things, and places that help them to create a real life.
We each are born with what we can call “essence.” The essence of who we are drives our passion, our curiosity, our growth, and our connections. We want to tap into, and be guided by, the essence of who you are as an individual—and be a part of your journey of building a pathway of meaning.
As a program, we feel strongly that we have a responsibility—and, of course, a desire—to help our clients achieve the highest level of independence, recovery, and functionality they are capable of. By adhering to these pillars and engaging with clients in a clinical as well as a non-clinical setting, we seek to develop the well-being and dignity of the whole person.
Clients at Galen Hope are also expected to take responsibility for their own recovery, their own actions, and their relationships with others, including those they meet at Galen Hope. Through the creation of A Community for Integrated Wellness, clients are expected to positively contribute to one another’s growth and development as a means of enhancing their own.
As a member of our community, we will help you find direction through giving, and through truly caring about others and about our environment. Galen Hope engages in social justice and social policy activities as a course of treatment. You may find yourself building a garden, working at a local soup kitchen, or advocating at the legislature, all as a part of your own personal journey to health and well-being.
