Inspired by the belief that recovery from major psychiatric challenges is possible, Windhorse Integrative Mental Health began in Northampton, MA by a coalition of parents, professionals and peers. Since then the program has grown to offer services in San Luis Obispo, CA and Portland, OR. For 25 years, Windhorse Integrative Mental Health has been an essential part of the recovery process for hundreds of people.
The Windhorse treatment approach is based upon the recognition that significant recovery occurs when people are supported by authentic therapeutic relationships in home settings. Windhorse believes people are the Medicine — the relational approach is humanistic, compassionate and focuses on the whole person, healing the mind, body, spirit and environment.

Dr. Podvoll’s work provides the foundation of the Windhorse approach. It will change your perspective about the possibility of recovery in the community.
