We are The Health Effort.
How can we help humans function better and be healthier for it? That’s the question that drives us every day.
We are passionate about applying psychology in broader settings, but we also love the moments when we return to our armchairs, offering individual consultations where real change happens, one conversation at a time.
We are approachable, down-to-earth, and always happy to connect. If you’re wondering whether we’re the right fit for you or your people, don’t hesitate to reach out, we’d love to chat.
