About Our Founder

Ace Lindquist is a clinical trauma recovery therapist in the field of forensic psychology specializing in the treatment of complex trauma and complicated grief, historically working with incarcerated women.

Ace’s primary area of expertise is on the evaluation and treatment of the intergenerational transmission of trauma through understanding how it can manifest mentally, emotionally, and physiologically in our bodies, ancestry, and the collective. Her calling is to transform consciousness through walking the threshold and building bridges between many different worlds.

After coming to the UK from the USA, Ace was deemed an Innovator by the Home Office and given the opportunity to start her own business in the UK, Integrative Healthcare Solutions (IHS). She is passionate about teaching multi-disciplinary, holistic approaches to health & wellness and self-development practices to individuals, organisations, systems, and communities. Through IHS, Ace offers operational improvements to institutions through the creation and implementation of bespoke programming that trains and supports their service providers, and she consults on best practices for trauma-responsive, gender-informed, culturally sensitive community engagement.

Ace has become a visionary and creator in the health tech field. She provides virtual peer mentorship and support for other health and wellness practitioners through her online proprietary provider network, UNION, where she delivers one-on-one treatments tailored to the needs of the client, as well as facilitates development circles that foster individual skillsets and group cohesion amongst both budding and well-established professionals. Ace has also created EPOCH Data Management Systems, a software designed to be a tool to securely manage internal training and external client communications through separate channels. She is currently patenting a technology that detects and mitigates bias (human or AI-based) in data sets for use within the criminal justice, education, and healthcare systems.
