HealingWorks® Hiring Principles

What We Look for in Every Teammate

1. Radically Client-Centered

We pride ourselves on treating each client as sacred. We hold their stories with reverence, protect their dignity, and stay committed to deep transformation—not just symptom relief.

2. Culturally Rooted & Responsive

We honor ancestral wisdom, acknowledge systemic harm, and center cultural truths in our clinical work. Healing doesn’t begin in textbooks—it lives in heritage, lived experience, and liberation. With the spirit of Sankofa, we help clients reclaim what was lost to move forward with purpose.

3. Committed to Excellence

We pride ourselves on showing up with integrity in everything we do—documentation, presence, collaboration, and care. We understand that our clients are depending on us, and we don’t take that lightly.

4. Growth-Minded & Feedback-Ready

We welcome feedback as a sacred tool for evolution. We believe personal growth is professional responsibility—and we’re always learning, refining, and becoming.

5. Healing Beyond the Medical Model

We approach therapy as sacred, whole-person work. We integrate decolonized therapeutic practices, non-Western wisdom, and soul-centered healing that honors every layer of our clients’ identity and experience.
