Diagnostic labels, meds, fads and platitudes that pass for wisdom? Current approaches to healing and fulfillment can rob you of your ability to forge your own path of mending and growth.

Psychedelic practices – recently hailed as the next big breakthrough in physical, mental and spiritual well-being – are increasingly following the disempowering trend of one-size-fits-all care, promising miracle cures and spiritual transformation with the finger snap of one substance or another.

Cardea resists this trend toward standardized psychedelic care.

We know that healing, recovery, and awakening have one thing in common: there is no single road to reach them, only as many paths as there are travelers..

Ellenhorn is the most robust Community Integration program in the United states, serving individuals in their own homes and communities, who are typically assessed by professionals as needing sequestered care in hospital or residential programs. At Ellenhorn, we believe that our clients have lost their sense of a dream. Our job is to help our clients return to functioning in all areas of their lives.

We built our program around the PACT model, a multidisciplinary team approach that serves clients wherever they are. PACT is the most researched evidence-based model for serving individuals affected by serious psychiatric experiences. As much as 70% of our contacts with clients take place outside the office, in the community. Combining this way of delivering services with psychiatric care, we aim to support our client’s psychosocial recovery.
