Providing you with a space to heal and transform
Mansio [MAHN-sio] is a Latin word that dates back to Ancient Rome. It originally referred to shelters along travel roads that provided rest and healing for weary travelers. In the same spirit, the Mansio Center exists as a place for rest and refreshment as you travel life’s road. Regardless of where life has taken you thus far, Mansio is here to give you everything you need as your journey forward. Our office environment is free from judgment, stigmas, and shame. We will welcome, encourage, and challenge you toward your new future.

Mansio Manifesto
We believe in offering hospitality to each human soul that works through our physical or virtual door seeking support and care.
We believe that therapy is a safe space where all of our parts are welcome—the ones we lead with and the ones we hide, the ones we are proud of and the ones we are ashamed of, and everything in between.
We believe in deep healing that goes beyond bandaid approaches to symptom reduction. This work takes time, patience and it is not linear.
We believe in holistic approach to human health where our physical, emotional, cognitive and spiritual aspects are all interconnected and therefore have to be addressed as part of our healing journeys.
We believe in taking a humble stance before other people’s cultures different from our own, always seeking to educate ourselves on ways we can see each humans in more nuanced ways, especially those that have been traditionally marginalized in societies.
We believe in mental health care that is both competent and compassionate, bringing the best of science and the art of human connection.
We believe therapy is a relational microcosm where people can bring all of their pain and then practice new ways of living and relating, with more self-awareness, love and courage.
We believe in human resilience and post-traumatic growth. No matter how hard life may have hit us, there is always hope for change.
