Our Approach
At ITAVcollab, Self Care Beyond the Surface is more than a concept-its a culturally rooted, transformative journey toward intergenerational healing. Our experiences guide individuals through the powerful stages of awareness, acceptance, and change, supporting wellness that is deep, intentional, and lasting.
Grounded in the principles of Umoja (Unity), Kujichagulia (Self-Determination), and Ujima (collective Work and Responsibility), central to our methodology is the Circle Process to cultivate trust, connection, and shared growth. Our wellness experiences are safe spaces where stories are honored, resilience is affirmed, and community is activated.
We prioritize collaboration, providing culturally competent resources and practitioners who honor cultural heritage, aiming to bridge gaps in healthcare access and trust. Through this work, we inspire holistic mindset shifts and lifestyle changes that reflect Nia (Purpose), Kuumba (Creativity), and Imani (Faith)- redefining wellness as both a personal right and a collective responsibility.
