About Ubuntu
What happens in therapy?
The answer to that question is as unique as the person who walks through our door.
It would be much easier to say, “Once we understand your challenge, we apply the therapy solution and “ta-dah” life is better!” The honest answer is that therapy is not a linear process. It works best when it is organic in it’s connection, and flows in a way that works best for you. This doesn’t mean we don’t use tools or strategies to help you heal – it means that our highly skilled therapists can recognize unexpected turns in your journey and address them as they come.
It is our goal to meet you where are now and help you create change at a pace that’s right for your situation and tolerance. We practice in a variety of languages and we are committed to up-to-date, life-long learning.
As therapists, it is our job to help you uncover your potential and build the connections you need to live a better story.
At Ubuntu Psychotherapy & Wellness, our mission is to help you untangle the thoughts & emotions that are keeping you from living with connection & clarity so you can feel whole, build deeper bonds and live with more meaning.

The meaning of Ubuntu
If you are new to the concept of “Ubuntu”, we want to start with our grounding philosophy and mission. Archbishop Desmond Tutu explained it best:
“A person with Ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, based from a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed.”
– Desmond Tutu (No Future Without Forgiveness, 1999)
