Greetings all. Due to all of the changes in Federal Funding. Spring Eternal is no longer able to operate with a physical office. Starting May 1, 2026, Spring will be a virtual only practice. While we understand that many people prefer face-to-face services, this is a decision that we had no choice to make until we can recover and rebuild our practice. We will still offer the same exceptional service from our highly qualified providers, however it will be home based services or virtually until further notice.
Due to these changes, we will have limited ability to answer our phones but will be checking voicemails. The best route will be to email us at officemanager@springokc.org. Our goal is to return to an in-office space once we are able to sustain without the federal funding.
With that being said, we do have referrals coming in daily and we are hiring virtual providers to join us. If interested, please send an email to jobs@springokc.org.
Sincerely,
Dr. Mariechia Palmer, CEO

Showers are essential! Thanks BeHeard Movement for doing what you do.
Sad news… 😔
We learned that our friends at LavaMaeX, pioneers in mobile showers since 2012, have officially shut down. When we first heard this about two years ago, it was hard to believe. LavaMaeX did incredible, necessary work across California—and like many smaller organizations, they faced the brutal reality: funding is hard.
This isn’t an isolated case. Last year our friends in Florida had to pause services due to funding, and now Shower of Hope in L.A. is also losing critical support and has to stop services…
Here’s the truth: mobile showers and laundry services are essential, even if they’re often overlooked. A shower impacts every part of a person—physically, mentally, emotionally.
Imagine not being able to shower for 3–6 months. Would you be the same version of yourself on day 90 that you were on day 1? Would you buy or rent a home that didn’t have a shower or running water? Of course not. That tells us one thing—we all agree a shower is important.
In some parts of our city, the nearest shower and shelter is a 4–5 hour walk. That’s why mobile access matters. This year, we’ve served guests as young as 3 and as old as 77—all just needing and wanting a shower.
Just yesterday in OKC, a woman came out of our shower in tears, repeating over and over:
“You just have no idea…”
While we continue to advocate for more affordable housing in all forms, we also ask this,
Please, don’t overlook the power of a simple shower.

Dr. Mariechia Palmer is a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor, Marriage and Family Therapist and Executive Director of Spring Eternal, the leading outpatient mental health and substance abuse treatment facility in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Through her practice, she works with individuals and couples to retrace the pain of their past, so they can finally begin to heal the hurts of their present.
While Dr. Mariechia has always known that she wanted to pursue a career in healthcare, she anticipated her interests and desires would lead to nursing. But after completing her undergraduate studies, she had an opportunity to explore therapeutic foster care, an experience that definitively shifted her professional course. Having grown up with a parent who battled addiction, her casework made her want to delve deeper into the disease, and its undeniable impact on children. She knew first-hand how drug dependency and mental health challenges shattered families, and as she began her PhD studies with the intention of devoting her career to clinical research, she realized that if she really wanted to help people, she needed to practice outside of the classroom. She needed to be hands-on with families that had been destroyed by dysfunction for generations.
She needed to be a healer—of broken homes, families and hearts.
Once she became a licensed clinician, Dr. Mariechia began to take a closer look at the dynamics that kept many of her patients from moving forward in their lives. There was the stigma that came with mental health challenges that prevented people from seeking the treatment they needed, but even for those who were brave enough to get help, traditional counseling often failed them. The reason was that their therapy didn’t connect their current habits to where their brokenness began. Her solution was an agency where she could equip her patients with the tools to discover where and how they need to heal with self-exploration and reframing their past experiences and perceptions of themselves and their lives.
SPRING Eternal is that place.
Today, Dr. Mariechia helps people from all walks of life to start their own healing journeys. Whether she is supporting an engaged couple to explore themselves and each other before marriage or an individual struggling with addiction, her work remains true to breaking the stigmas and unhealthy generational cycles that keep them bound.
