What We Do

Experiences of
‍real human connection

Slow down, listen, and be heard. Whether your life is in chaos and you need support, or you have capacity and want to volunteer, our community programs offer free-of-charge programs every day of the week in-person and online.

Programs & Services

SeekHealing is a community-sourced treatment model that empowers people to heal from trauma rather than achieve certain outcomes.
We provide free support services to any stage in the process of healing from trauma and/or addiction and mental health challenges.

Free public education

Group experiences

Interactive social health initiatives to meet people’s social needs. Includes facilitated Connection Practice meetings as well as casual substance-free social events.

Get connected

You are welcome here.

Whether you’re trying to change a substance use pattern, want to volunteer, want to facilitate healing experiences for others, or just want to live a more connected life, you are welcome here.

Human Connection Laboratory

We are always experimenting with new ways to facilitate experiences of meaningful human connection, both one-on-one and in groups.

Connection Missions

Connection Missions match people up to give and receive random acts of kindness from each other. You don’t have to be “addicts” or “sick” to receive support, and don’t have to be professionally certified in order to give back safely and benefit from the experience of community and supporting someone else in need.

Seeker voices

In their words

"SeekHealing has created a structure for relating that I really needed. It allows me to be in community without any associated trauma. To me, it seems to replicate the best aspects of living in a tribe. When one person is suffering, we all get to carry a little bit more weight together so that person -- that elder, that young Trans person, that mom who just had a baby, that person who just lost their lover and is grieving – isn’t alone."

Juda O.

"In the SeekHealing community, I’ve found a place where I can "unzip" myself—this carefully curated, conditioned version of me that I thought I had to be for so long. SeekHealing allows me to just rest in my authenticity, and to have others do it with me. It’s a place where I feel deep love with other beings."

Gabby V.

"My participation SeekHealing has enabled me to witness and take part in incredible, observable, significant growth and change in other seekers. I now understand how we are a part of each others’ healing. At 78, I am now in incredible health. I take no medication. Connection is my medication."

Ted T.

"When I go to SeekHealing, I find compassion. I can show up however I am and no one tries to change me, or make me sit still when I can’t, or tell me that everything’s going to be ok when that’s not true. The Connection Practice circles relieve me in a way that I actually feel heard, and feel like I can breathe and calm down."

Kelly R.

"I’ve met wonderful people through SeekHealing whom I’ve never been in the same room with, yet I feel no less compassion for them. That connection is real despite the physical distance. I live miles from other people, and I don’t get to leave my house much, but through SeekHealing, I can still connect. That has been tremendously helpful to me."
