ABOUT US

We are traditionally licensed and trained clinicians who are always exploring alternative modalities of treatment to offer you the best, most advanced services available.

We work with individuals, families and the larger community, leveraging the unique strengths of our interdisciplinary team to create a plan of action to overcome obstacles preventing success in all areas of your life. Your success is our success.

For over forty years, the Taus family has been serving the health needs of the San Pedro community.

We tell the TRUTH, we do the RIGHT THING and we DO OUR BEST. 

So what does all this mean exactly…

1. You are VALUABLE! Your life is important, that’s our stance. Therefore our aim is to bring healing value to your life so it gets better because it’s worth a lot. We believe that when you get better so does everybody else.

2. We are POSITIVE! That means we see your goodness and the opportunities before you. We arent about negativity and painting a dark picture of your life. We find the silver lining in you, your life and know from where we are standing that you can get better and live a better more joyful life.

3. We are STRENGTH BASED! That means we are going to remind you of your power, find what your naturally good at and help you use your natural strengths to heal the areas that need healing so that your life improves. 

4. We are GOAL ORIENTED: That means we have a specific target to hit. The very best therapy has measurable targets to know that healing and success are happening.

5. We are bringing LOVE! That means we are going to treat you right, make you feel safe and let you know that we care about you and your life and the challenges you are facing.

6. We are bringing WISDOM! That means not only are we bringing to you the very best in education but our real life experience. We use our minds, our bodies and our hearts to deliver the wisdom you need to make the difference in your life. 

7. We bring HEALING! The question in our mind most often is how can I bring even greater healing to you and all we serve. Everybody deserves to feel good and healing is how its done. 

8. We Bring the TRUTH! How will you get better without real truth? Fair warning sometimes the truth we need to bring for your benefit is going to sting but it’s necessary for your healing, your growth, and good living. If you arent challenged then you likely aren’t growing and truth is how that gets done. We owe you the very least to be honest and that’s what we will do. Honest relationships are healthy relationships. You know that we are just practicing what we preach. 

9. We DO THE RIGHT THING! That means we act like good people with some good common sense. We are committed to doing right by you and doing right by ourselves. This is the making and key ingredient to love everlasting and the very best kind of relationships. 

10. We DO OUR BEST! That means when you are with us we are giving 100% effort because that’s what it takes to make differences and move mountains big and small. We do our best for you because your worth it and we know what your impact on the world and on others will be when you are sitting in the driver seat of your power
