Our Journey

A Path of Healing, Growth, and Community

In the heart of the Quad Cities, a vision pulsed steadily for over a decade – a dream of creating a space where healing touches every aspect of life. This vision became Pulse Counseling & Wellness Center, where our name isn't just a word, but a living philosophy:

Our Roots

Pulse Counseling & Wellness Center grew from a deep understanding of the transformative power of healing and community support. Founded by Autumn Gonzalez, our center was born from a vision of creating a safe, nurturing space where individuals from all walks of life can find the support they need to thrive.

In February 2024, after years of careful planning, our doors opened wide, welcoming all who seek growth and healing. This moment wasn't just the start of a practice; it was the birth of a community, pulsing with hope and possibility.

Our center beats with a rhythm of compassion, integrity, and holistic care. We believe in the power of everyday moments to transform lives. Here, healing isn't confined to therapy sessions – it ripples through daily choices, interactions, and the quiet triumphs of personal growth.

Our Heartbeat

Our mission pulses through everything we do: To provide compassionate, integrative care that empowers individuals to achieve lasting wellness and personal growth. 

Our Vision

We envision a community where mental health is prioritized, stigma is eliminated, and every individual has access to the tools and support needed for holistic well-being. 

Growing Together

As we continue on this journey, we invite you to join our PULSE community. Your story intertwines with ours, creating a tapestry of healing and growth. Together, we're fostering an environment where respect for self and others flows naturally, and where the greater good is served in countless meaningful ways.

Our doors are open, our hearts are ready. While the idea of Pulse has a decade-long heartbeat, our shared story is just beginning. We invite you to become part of the Pulse Counseling & Wellness Center community. Here, you'll find a place to grow, heal, and thrive.
