Therapeutic Oasis

Therapeutic Oasis began as a dream. Psychologists Dr. Nicole Friedman and Dr. Patricia Shutt, along with dietitian and nutrition therapist Christie Caggiani, had been providing therapy and DBT services together for years. As they observed the effectiveness of the team approach, they began to visualize the benefits of providing it to a broad range of clients in a tranquil, safe environment.

In 2013 the accomplished trio became co-owners of Therapeutic Oasis. Their mission was to offer clientcentered services that truly addressed the needs of each individual. Now with locations in Boca and Jupiter, Dr. Shutt reflects on their achievements.

“The foundation of our success is due in large part to our incredible team. We have been fortunate to find some truly gifted and compassionate professionals, each contributing something valuable, and the entire team is more effective as a result. The fact that our current team is all women has a special connection for me, especially as a mother of two daughters.

“The Oasis is not a treatment center; rather, it is an intimate healing environment where clients feel supported and validated as they change their lives. Some people come here extremely traumatized with complex issues. Others are dealing with divorce, anxiety or eating disorders. We help people of all ages along this continuum with therapy, nutrition and other holistic services. Nutrition, particularly, is important in our work as it uniquely integrates emotional, mental and physical wellness. Our depth of experience also allows us to provide intensive programs, including some for teens and families.

As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, we are both proud of our accomplishments and excited about the future, especially as we pursue DBT Program Certification. The power of our team is palpable, and you cannot help but feel this amazing synergy. For me, working here is far more than a job; it is my life.”
