Defining Carencia

In bullfighting, the Carencia is the safe space that the bull finds for itself; the place where it finds a wellspring of comfort and confidence. We typically say it is the space in the arena, where the bull is poised to reflect, know what it is lacking, and be empowered. It is here, the strength to win the battle is cultivated and used.

The sentiment here is the Bull is in a battle, lacking something. He finds the Carencia (which is unique for each bull) and finds empowerment to overcome.

Our Philosophy

At our root approach, we are not a healthcare company, but a service company that so happens to practice medicine and deliver healthcare.

We take a whole-person approach to delivering care, considering the mental, physical, and lifestyle aspects of wellness. We emphasize care at all times, and not just because it’s our first syllable. We are balancing science and compassion in pursuit of destigmatizing mental healthcare. We know mental and physical wellness are equal in importance and critically reliant on one another.
