THE STORY OF SALT

Our clinic's inception began when our co-founders wanted to seek opportunity to make a major impact in the local community. We believe that all people are valuable and deserving of having an ally to help them restore hope and enhance the quality of their life. Much like the mineral salt, we offer a resource for those who have found their life out of balance.

In today's world, it is easy to overlook the importance and impact of the mineral salt. We most often give it credit for enhancing the flavor of our food, but we have forgotten the richness of it's history. This granule of simplicity holds properties that have been valued and sought after for centuries. So much so that, with a little research, you will find how salt has played an essential role in historical, metaphorical and spiritual contexts. Not only is it crucial in our daily diet for survival, it has also served as a means to preserve food and used as a commodity and form of currency. It holds medicinal healing properties and was often a symbolic gesture of friendship and loyalty. Salt has truely been a staple in the history of mankind.

At times you may hear people being described as “salt of the earth” or “worth their weight in salt”. This description reflects a person of goodness, simplicity, morally sound and of immense value. The origin of this metaphor can be found in the scriptures of Matthew when Jesus calls to his believers stating "You are salt of the earth" and adding "but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned?" (Matthew 5:13). This reference to faith and testimony became the foundation for SALT's worldview. A reminder that we are all susceptible to being affected by our surroundings and potentially robbed of our value if we are not careful. We hope to help enhance the lives of others while being a lifeline to help preserve the beliefs and values most important.

SALT is a safe place for people of all walks and perspectives. While we all struggle with life from time to time, some situations have us seeking a place where these issues can be addressed with some degree of spiritual processing and insight. We are here to provide this should this be your need. If it isn't, please don't worry. We respect each person and their personal convictions and beliefs. We recognize that everyone comes to us with different views about God and faith, and we have many clients who identify with another faith or non-religious. We put priority on making each person feel welcomed, comfortable, and accepted. We want you to choose if and how you would like to incorporate your personal faith or spirituality into your counseling experience with SALT. SALT's worldview will never infringe upon your value system, but it's a integral part of how we see ourselves.
