About Sorrel Leaf Healing Center

Sorrel Leaf Healing Center's comprehensive system of care serves the needs of children and adolescents ages seven through eighteen. Our Nonprofit mental health organization offers transformative, compassionate, evidence-based and trauma-informed care for young people experiencing a mental health crisis in Humboldt County, California and the surrounding areas. Our therapeutic approach is rooted in a mindfulness model that focuses on embodied healing and connection to self, each other and the human and natural environments. Residents will leave with new and better tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Some of the modalities we will utilize include dialectical and cognitive behavior therapies, family and group therapy, and somatic/experiential modalities including yoga, music, movement and breathwork, in addition to life skills training, sleep and diet optimization. Through a collaboration with UCSF Benioff’s Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, pediatric psychiatrists will oversee diagnosis and, when indicated, the medical management of mental health disorders. Our aftercare clinic will continue the Center’s healing work over 6-12 months following discharge to prevent relapse and complete the course of therapy.
