Our Story

You’re welcome here.

More than anything, we believe that therapy should feel peaceful, authentic, and compassionate.

Whether you’d like to spend time gardening and connecting with the earth in our outdoor space or you’d like to simply relax in a hammock while enjoying the beauty of nature around you, we have a place for you.

Growing up, my father shared with me the secret ingredient to living a full, happy, and confident life: compassion.

He taught me that our fellow humans, animals, and even our environment were all deserving of our kindness and respect, and that it was our job as individuals to take a compassionate approach in all that we do.

His positive view of others, including marginalized and judged populations, was a major influence in my life from early on; although he is now living with advanced Parkinsons and unable to do everything he used to physically, his mind is just as sharp and his heart just as compassionate as it was all those years before.

Thanks to my father’s influence and my natural love of nature, Compassionate Roots was born.

It’s vital to me that his kindness and love for others is carried out through the Compassionate Roots brand and in all that we do. His impact will continue to trickle down to friends and clients and everyone we have the opportunity to connect with through CR.

My parents equally raised me to connect with nature in an intentional way and to see myself as one with the earth.

As a child, we hiked, gardened, cared for animals, and were taught the beauty of fireflies and butterflies.

Personally, gardening has been the most healing and therapeutic activity I’ve found for my mental health, and I deeply believe that teaching these skills and experiences can improve the health of others, as well.

Kind Words

From our Clients

“Brónagh is an exceptional therapist. Her guidance and support have helped me make big changes in my life and my mental health.

She always offers different tools or practices to support my mental health. She makes sure each session is meaningful.

In the past, it was always hard for me to talk during therapy sessions, but Bronagh has a great rapport, a calm vibe, and asks thoughtful questions that made it much easier for me to open up. I am very grateful to have found Bronagh and Compassionate Roots!
