Mental Health & Wellbeing at Haven Innovation
When we feel stuck in a situation or in a feeling it's usually because we're accustomed to seeing things from a particular point of view. It can help to share our situation in an open, judgment-free and agenda-free space with someone who can guide us to see a different perspective, a different approach to a problem or a mindset.
Allison Paradise and Connor Maliesky of The Epicenter will be working with the team at Haven Innovation each week to listen. We are not therapists or counselors; we are Mindfulness Mentors. We know how to be fully present and guide people in exploring and discovering their authentic selves. Through this work, people often discover a more present, beneficial mindset and find the courage to take action in new ways.
Everything that is shared with us is confidential. This mental health and overall wellbeing resource is being provided to Haven Innovation employees at no cost. We're open to meeting weekly, monthly, or however frequently works best for you, in person, over the phone, or online.

Introduction to Allison & Connor
Connor Maliesky graduated college as a Mechanical Engineer and worked in the field for 3 years. He taught himself to make guitars during this time and fell in love with the process of turning raw timber into something that lives on to express emotions and feelings. He then began to work at an art-centered makerspace. While there, he learned the ins and outs of LED art and began to appreciate how hi-tech tools such as laser cutters and CNC machines could be used in a creative way. Aside from making things, Connor is fascinated with human behavior and how creativity plays out in the human experience. He's assisted in developing daily readings and reflection questions for an online spiritual community, led group meditations, and aided in retreats online and at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, CA. It was during this time that Connor began to realize the importance of allowing youth a space to create from the source of their authentic selves.
