Mission
THE THERAPY SERVICES DEPARTMENT OF THE FREEDOM CENTER OPERATES FROM THE BELIEF THAT HOPE IS REAL, LOVE IS DESERVING, AND HEALING CAN HAPPEN. HOPE IS THE FOUNDATION THAT CHANGE, AND TRANSFORMATION MUST BE BUILT UPON. IF WE DONT BELIEVE IN OURSELVES OR IN OUR FUTURE OR IN THE FACT THINGS CAN CHANGE, THEN THINGS MOST CERTAINLY WILL NOT CHANGE. HOPE IS ESSENTIAL AND IS VERY REAL. LOVE IS THE GLUE THAT HOLDS EVERYTHING TOGETHER. WITHOUT LOVE, WE HAVE AND ARE NOTHING. EVERY INDIVIDUAL ON PLANET EARTH IS DESERVING OF LOVE AND A SENSE OF BELONGING. WHEN WE FEEL UNLOVED OR SIMPLY QUESTION OUR ABILITY TO BE LOVED, THINGS BEGIN TO FALL APART. LOVE HOLDS US TOGETHER, AS INDIVIDUALS AND AS A SOCIETY. HEALING IS BEING FULLY RESTORED BACK TO WHO WERE MEANT TO BE AND OVERCOMING WHAT STANDS IN THE WAY OF THAT. WHEN UNRESOLVED TRAUMA, LOSS, BETRAYAL, PAIN, AND BROKEN-DOWN RELATIONSHIPS CLOUD OUR VISION OF WHO WE ARE, HEALING CAN SEEM UNATTAINABLE; WE ASSIMILATE TO A DIFFERENT NORMAL. WHEN WE BELIEVE IN
