Our History
Via Positiva was founded in 2011 in Albuquerque New Mexico as a practice of behavioral health executives and practitioners dedicated to helping substance abuse, mental health, and other human service providers navigate the healthcare landscape toward becoming fiscally strong, sustainable, integrated, and clinically and culturally excellent. With current offices in Angel Fire, NM; Houston, Tx; and Boston, MA, Via Positiva works with providers, insurers, corporations, and regulators with a focus on aligning clinical and recovery best practices with business best practices while helping to shape and raise the bar nationally on access and quality for positive therapeutic and business outcomes.
Our Mission
Via Positiva’s mission is to help providers, insurers, and regulatory agencies develop systems that are truly recovery oriented, trauma informed, have excellent engagement and retention, and high quality and positive therapeutic outcomes. To do this, we help each of these and others strategically and creatively partner to fold business best practices into their organization and develop equity within the system of care, so there is hope, help, sustainability, and growth for the future. Via Positiva is unique in that we have national experts who are clinicians, operations experts, researchers, and those exceptionally knowledgeable in the business of behavioral health at the local, state, and national levels. This combination helps our clients navigate multistakeholder and complex systems.
Our Commitment
Via Positiva is also committed to being a trauma informed business organization animated by trauma informed values including emotional safety, trustworthiness and transparency, emphasis on collaboration and mutual respect, empowerment by committing fully to the transfer of key information, a commitment to quality of presence and professional support, the connecting of providers to key local and national stakeholders, and holding an attitude of magnanimity and enthusiasm in our work together. If Via Positiva ever drifts from these core values, we take time to identify the issues, reset, and ground ourselves back to these guiding principles.
