Dreamcatcher Holistic Health Services

Why we do what we do

So often in life we see a problem and our first thought may be, "I wish things were different" and our second thought often is "if only someone could do something about this." These very thoughts made appearances in the minds of the founders of D.H.H.S. We saw the limitations and struggles workers in the industry, remote locations and indigenous communities faced, and rather than wish things could be different, we joined together to make the change.

Dreamcatcher Holistic Health Services is unique in its approach of holistic wellness - we created a team of diverse professionals who were leaders in their field and joined together to bring our experiences, knowledge and expertise to create our company and programs.
