The Name ''Eletheia''
Where Does the Name “Eletheia” Come From?
Eletheia (pronounced eh-lee-thee-uh) comes from the ancient Greek word Aletheia, meaning “truth”, not just as fact, but as the gentle process of uncovering what’s been hidden.
Eletheia’s Approach
Eletheia’s approach is grounded in:
-
Trauma-informed care: Grounded in awareness, sensitivity, and safety, acknowledging how past experiences shape the present.
-
Cultural awareness: Valuing the role of background, identity, and environment in shaping who we are.
-
Integrative practice: Drawing from different therapeutic approaches to meet each person where they are.
-
Intentionality: Exploring what gives life meaning and allowing that awareness to shape how life is lived.
​​
