Bridging Mental Health and Community—Healing for Individuals and Groups

Walk Intuit is a trauma-informed mental health organization and clinical training site committed to whole-person healing—mind, body, and soul. Our team includes licensed therapists, associate therapists, and graduate trainees who work together within a carefully supported, highly supervised framework that is evidence-based, trauma-informed, and inclusive of spiritually attuned and depth-informed approaches.

We believe healing is a relational process—and so is professional development. That’s why we invest in weekly clinical supervision and training for every team member, ensuring care that is not only somatically grounded and trauma-informed, but also culturally responsive, ethically held, and clinically sound.

All of our clinicians are LGBTQIA+ affirming, with many proudly identifying as members of the LGBTQIA+ community. We are committed to creating a therapeutic environment where all identities are welcomed, honored, and supported in their full, authentic expression.
