What Can I Expect When I Come to Wallowa Valley Center for Wellness
We provide a warm, welcoming, and safe space for you so you can heal. Our front desk staff will welcome you with a smile and check you in. Your clinician or case manager will greet you and take you to a private room and work with you in creating a wellness plan that helps you achieve a happy, hopeful, productive and meaningful life. You will be treated with dignity and respect at all times, regardless of age, gender, race, culture, religious affiliation, physical or mental ability.
How often you are seen depends on your needs and is decided between you and your care team. We will usually offer 6-12 sessions but sometimes individuals are seen less, and sometimes they are seen more, depending again on your needs and wellness goals. Sessions are typically 50-60 minutes in length.
