Holistic Therapy

Holistic therapy integrates the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. I employ a holistic approach to address clients' concerns by considering their lifestyle, relationships, and belief systems. Through a combination of talk therapy, mindfulness practices, and lifestyle adjustments, I support clients in achieving balance and harmony in all areas of their lives, promoting holistic healing and growth.

I view the individual as part of a collective whole... part of their family system, social circle, society, planet earth, and the universe. Taking this broad view puts the complexity of each individual in context of larger systems in which we operate. Holistic therapy involves an understanding of nondualism: that all is interconnected. You are your own best healer. My job is to support you in honoring and becoming familiar with your most authentic self.

In working with my clients, I recognize the importance of compassionately and mindfully addressing the physical, spiritual, psychological, and emotional components of their experience in order to have a whole person understanding of their issue. The way I employ holistic therapy can help you learn how to regulate your nervous system, remember who you are and why you are here by embodying your present experience, and master ridding the waves of change and transformation.

Our entire model is holistic in that we meet clients where they're at and adapt our work to suit those needs. Whether it's somatic breathing for anxiety relief and relaxation, or integrating spirituality into creating routines that build meaning and purpose, we are open to it all!

I combine tried and tested techniques and personalize them into a unique approach to help guide you into your healing journey. This makes my methods accessible and usable in your everyday life. I base my approach in the real world, focusing on progress and results. I carefully select and personalize these tools to empower you to heal yourself. With these tools you can learn to uncover root issues and let go of old patterns that may be keeping you from reaching your goals.

A holistic approach means seeing a person as a whole being and recognizing the interconnectedness of one’s mind, body, and spirit in defining one’s overall wellness. Holistic balance utilizes a self-inventory of one’s mental (psychological), physical, emotional (i.e. expression of emotions), and spiritual (i.e. values, beliefs, sense of purpose) health to identify imbalances and work towards optimal wellness by strengthening weakened areas.

In my sessions I have the option to incorporate Reiki, Hilot, movement, and/or tarot as supplemental modalities to traditional psychotherapy.

I like to consider the entire client and their wishes or beliefs in developing a treatment plan. We are a team and it's my job to help guide the treatment plan, but the ultimate decision is yours.

Holistic psychotherapy uses traditional methods of psychotherapy along with nontraditional approaches to accomplish the deepest level of healing possible.

As a trained integrative healthcare practitioner, certified clinical aromatherapist, and Reiki Master, I offer a holistic approach to psychotherapy that incorporates complementary modalities such as breathwork, mindfulness, and meditation. By combining these techniques with traditional therapy, I can provide a more comprehensive and personalized approach to your mental wellness.

My focus is on treating the whole individual mind, body & spirit. I teach clients how to relax or energize their bodies and minds through yoga, meditation and mindfulness in session. I also assist clients in improving their sleep which impacts mood, energy and overall functioning. I am also available to discuss spiritual issues if clients are open to that and help guide them to see how helpful any kind of spiritual path can be a helpful part of treatment.

I use transpersonal psychology tools.

I like to consider the entire client and their wishes or beliefs in developing a treatment plan since mind and body as closely linked. We are a team and it's my job to help guide the treatment plan, but the ultimate decision is yours.

I have a Masters of Arts in Holistic Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University.

I see the value in every different approach and modality in therapy, so I try to tailor my approach to each individual client and their unique, everchanging issues using holistic therapy. I have used mindfulness, CBT, ACT, person-centered, psychodynamic, and DBT all with one client so far depending on what they needed with each session.

I love working with clients to think about how their health, nutrition and especially sleep effect their mental health. Whether a client is trying to get pregnant or recovering from growing/birthing a baby - health is a huge component of that journey. I especially help clients to focus on sleep - which is difficult, but so essential, in the postpartum period. I want clients to feel their best in every aspect of life - an sleep and nutrition are key factor in that.

Sometimes we feel like parts of us are missing or are weak. We may be experiencing physical pain due to what we are thinking or feeling. The holistic approach is to to help correct, heal, and strengthen you as a whole individual. This may look like doing some stretching during a session, having a homework assignment to get a massage or enjoy a healthy meal, or maybe it’s sitting in your feelings and recognizing how they show up in your body.

Holistic therapy aims to integrate all facets of your being - mind, body, spirit - in order to achieve overall wellness. Rather than being symptom-focused, holistic therapy takes into account what makes up the whole-person.
