A New Perspective on Healing

Nestled in the scenic heart of San Juan Capistrano, Story Wellness combines professional mental health care with a healing environment. Our serene location, just steps from downtown and easily accessible off the I-5 freeway, sets the stage for recovery.

Using innovative therapies like Narrative Therapy, CBT, and DBT, we guide individuals in reframing their life stories. By releasing harmful labels and negative self-beliefs, we empower you to redefine your identity and forge a path toward the life you want to live.

The stories we tell about ourselves shape who we are. Narrative therapy helps you reexamine and rewrite these stories to regain control, build resilience, and find meaning. Through this process, you’ll learn to view your experiences with fresh eyes, identify personal strengths, and create uplifting new narratives that move you toward healing and empowerment.

Narrative therapy helps you separate from your problems, see them objectively, and address them with newfound confidence. It’s about acknowledging what you’ve been through while focusing on who you’re becoming.

We create a confidential, supportive environment where you can share, reflect, and grow. Using evidence-based strategies, our therapists will guide you toward insights that promote healing and lasting behavioral changes.
