VINTAGE HEALTH WELLNESS CENTRE
We are a registered psychotherapy center with several years of experience specializing in various therapy techniques. We value our relationship with our clients and believe that such a relationship is the beacon in the healing process.
We believe that each individual is unique and has his own way of addressing resolutions. Thus, we believe in a wellness model that helps our clients empower themselves by focusing on what works for them and not on a systematic approach that provides a generic procedure for working on a treatment. One's journey is not the same as the other. Every individual has the solutions to their challenges, and our role is to provide a nurturing environment to aid thought processing and decision-making.
Take Charge of Your Life! Be in Control!
