Mara and Korrey believe that caring for both the face and the mind is essential to overall well-being and recovery. With over 50 years of combined experience, their approach integrates physical rehabilitation with the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support healing from the inside out.
Each person’s journey is unique, and therapy begins with a thorough physical therapy and occupational therapy assessment to understand individual needs, values, and goals. From there, an empowerment plan is created to promote both physical progress and emotional resilience.
This integrated approach promotes measurable physical improvements—such as enhanced facial control, reduced tension, and improved coordination—alongside greater emotional balance and confidence.
Through education, guidance, and compassionate support, each individual is empowered to move forward with clarity, strength, and renewed purpose, achieving the best possible outcomes for both face and mind.

Facial paralysis can bring significant physical, emotional, and social challenges. Our therapeutic approach focuses not only on improving physical function but also on nurturing emotional well-being and self-confidence throughout recovery.
This holistic model recognizes that healing extends beyond physical rehabilitation. Addressing the internal dialogue, managing self-critical thoughts, and fostering self-compassion are essential components of the process. By integrating evidence-based strategies such as mindfulness and acceptance-based approaches, our therapy supports individuals in developing resilience and a more balanced relationship with their thoughts and emotions.
Individual and group sessions are designed to provide a safe, supportive environment where individuals can share experiences, learn coping strategies, and connect with others navigating similar challenges.
Through compassionate guidance and personalized care, our therapy empowers individuals to move forward with strength, acceptance, and renewed hope.
