What is ICT?

Integrative Community Therapy (ICT) offers a fresh approach to support and connection through open, powerful community conversations. ICT is designed for everyone, without the need for referrals, insurance, or long waits, making it accessible to anyone seeking meaningful support. It's Community Conversations in Action all over the U.S. 


This approach brings people together to share experiences, listen, and draw strength from collective wisdom. We all face daily challenges—small "pebbles in our shoes" that can grow into real burdens. Through guided conversations, ICT helps us address these struggles together, offering relief and insight that only a well-supported community can provide.
