Helix Health Care Group

Helix Healthcare Group is breaking the stereotypical view of mental illness and addiction issues, and is the first facility of its kind in Toronto to offer treatment plans with a holistic mind-body approach. Located in the heart of Toronto's upscale Yorkville neighbourhood, the state-of-the-art wellness centre offers sweeping views of the neighbourhood from its second and third floor space.

Helix Healthcare's signature Spectrum Recovery and Catalyst Wellness programs integrate a combination of neuropsychology, mind-body techniques and cutting-edge treatments through a compassionate and unique approach. CEO and co-founder Mark Rivkin attributes his own personal experiences to the company's growing success.

"I had substance abuse issues; (I was) taking an intensive program in the United States without the same kind of support here in Toronto," says Mark. "There's still a lot of stigma in dealing with mental health issues and substance abuse. We all know someone who has been touched or affected. We chose to create a centre that is discrete, and is able to support people on their recovery journey on their own time."
