Meet Our Team

Healthy Foundations Group is founded on the tenet that the ideal treatment plan is best developed and implemented using a team approach that involves therapy, addresses challenging lifestyle issues, and addresses any medical or pharmacologic needs.

We pride ourselves on providing superior care and have taken great strides to ensure such care is accessible. We have assembled a team of highly trained professionals who are available during the day and in the evenings, so as to minimally disrupt work and school related activities.
