"No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us."
~1 John 4:12
ABOUT US
At Ahava Therapy and Wellness Center, we are here to serve our community and provide support for those suffering from PTSD, depression, anxiety and other stress disorders due to varying types of trauma. We want to be a resource for the entire community, especially veterans, active duty military, first responders and victims of sexual assault and domestic violence.
​
We believe that by using a holistic approach to therapy and exposing an individual to several types of therapy and wellness touch points, the individual is able to experience a deeper level of healing. We also believe quality therapy can be expensive and not everyone can afford that cost. Our services are free and anyone accepted into our therapy program will have no out of pocket expenses.
Ahava Therapy and Wellness Center is a Non-Profit Public Charity under Internal Revenue Code 501(c)(3).
A Message From the President of Ahava Therapy and Wellness Center
"Ahava" is a Hebrew name meaning love. The word Love has many different translations. The Greeks used the word "Agape" which translated means "Selfless Universal Love", or "Self-Sacrificial and Intentional Love". This is the type of love that our Veterans, Active-Duty Military, and First Responders have and continue to show every day through the sacrifices they make in service to their country and community. Thomas Aquinas later expanded the definition to mean "to will the good of another." This idea "to will the good of another" is unconditional and bigger than ourselves.
At Ahava, our translation of love means to have boundless compassion and infinite empathy which we extend to everyone in our program, their families, and our community that we serve. This God guided love influences the way our organization runs and is the primary driving force behind our holistic approach to Therapy.
