Our Mission

Let us help you become your best self

In Irish Gaelic, Anam Cara (ah-num car-uh) means “soul friend”. In this beautiful Celtic tradition, a person’s anam cara (soul friend) was the one to whom you could share your innermost self, your mind, and your heart with total acceptance, understanding, and love. Through this experience of recognition and belonging, a person is gifted the total freedom to be exactly as God designed them to be --- body, mind, and soul.

In this tradition, we believe that a healthy mind is essential to a fulfilling and satisfying life. Stress, trauma, injury, and disease can take a serious toll on the brain and nervous system, impacting mental health and our ability to be “ourselves” --- physically, mentally, and spiritually. At Anam Cara Wellness, we exist to help others “be themselves” again and become healthy and whole through healing and enhancing the mind. We are proud to offer IASIS microcurrent neurofeedback as a treatment approach to assist those striving to improve mental well-being and brain health.
