A Better Treatment Option
An Alternative to Inpatient and Residential Treatment
Based in Boulder, Colorado, Windhorse Community Services is a leader in mindfulness-based mental health recovery. Our award-winning clinical staff—many of whom have been with us for over a decade—are deeply experienced in addressing the complex needs of people with severe mental health challenges and helping them reach a healthier, more integrated state of being.
Our unique approach includes setting clients up in their own home, creating a tailored treatment team, and providing supervised community activities and work opportunities. Through compassionate, daily care, we give clients the opportunity to build a rich and rewarding life and to find a better way to relate to themselves and the world around them.
In the words of one of our long-time psychiatrist collaborators,
“I refer to Windhorse for a variety of reasons, but especially when I have no idea what will actually be helpful for someone and how long it will take.”
