Holistic Therapy

Holistic therapy supports individuals with anxiety or people-pleasing tendencies by addressing the connection between mind, body, and spirit. It incorporates mindfulness, breathwork, and body awareness to help you manage anxiety, while also exploring emotional patterns that fuel people-pleasing behaviors. By focusing on the whole person, holistic therapy encourages self-compassion, emotional balance, and helps you build healthier boundaries, leading to a more regulated and aligned experience.

I use transpersonal psychology tools.

My work is dedicated to remaining holistic and centered around the desires, goals, and comfort of each client. I want to help you navigate your world, offering clarity and understanding as you explore what truly matters to you. Together, we'll uncover core values and identify meaningful steps to move forward. My goal is to provide interventions and strategies that align with who you are and what resonates most with your unique perspective.

I use a holistic, integrative approach, considering the whole person, and the interconnectedness of the mind, body & spirit. I uniquely tailor sessions blending evidence-based practices, including psychodynamic principles complimented with food mood psychology inspired by functional medicine, to address both root causes and current challenges.

I work from a body-mind-spirit philosophy, as they are all connected. We can explore how your nervous system may be dysregulated and ways to support your body through exercise, diet, connection, sleep, and rest. We can examine thinking patterns and ways to shift them, creating new and healthier associations. By going deeper, we can honor unhealed wounds, leading to a more connected state and deeper relationships with yourself, others, purpose, and meaning.

I treat my clients as a whole person rather then a diagnosis. I see the importance of addressing all areas of a person's health and wellbeing, including their mental and emotional health but also social, physical, spiritual, and occupational health as well. All of these life areas interact and impact on another, so I find the counseling experience to be most effective when all areas are in a state of growth.

Functional Medicine practitioners use holistic approaches to look “upstream” to consider the complex interactions in your history, physiology, and lifestyle that can lead to illness. The unique genetic makeup is considered, along with both internal (mind, body and spirit) and external (physical and social environment) factors that affect total functioning.

In my holistic therapy practice, I incorporate sound bowls, hypnosis, and meditation to create a comprehensive healing experience. These modalities work together to promote relaxation, self-awareness, and emotional balance. Sound bowls help to facilitate deep relaxation and mindfulness, while hypnosis allows clients to explore and reframe their thoughts and behaviors. Meditation practices cultivate present-moment awareness and inner peace. Together, these techniques support individuals healing

Holistic Psychotherapy is the integration of the connection between the mind, body and spirit in effort to address issues on a deep level. I hold traditional psychodynamic, nervous system based and Eastern healing traditions equally important and complementary. During our work together, we connect to your inner being and explore the various parts that need healing. There is also an emphasis on the whole person and your connection to self and others.

Mandi is certified in and offers holistic medicine consultation along with somatic, yoga, and other non-traditional and holistic therapy modalities.

Holistic Therapy takes a whole-person approach, addressing mind, body, and spirit. It integrates various techniques (e.g., mindfulness, nutrition, talk therapy) to promote overall well-being and balance.

Holistic therapy is centered upon the mind-body-soul[-breath] connection. Therefore, whatever issue is arising for discussion the therapy setting is perceived through the lens of the whole body. This includes techniques to help a person become more familiar and comfortable with emotions, thoughts, moods, intuitions, physical and physiological responses, and techniques to support each experience.

My practice focuses on creating balance and healing the mind-body connection because I believe mental health and physical health are equally important. I emphasize the necessity of healthy physical habits as well as healthy emotional and mental habits as part of my treatment process. I help clients discover new behaviors and activities that work best for them and their bodies.

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, etc.) health to identify imbalances and work towards optimal wellness. Holistic balance emphasizes the belief that all areas of health are of equal importance.

I have a passion for shifting the status quo and understanding the way the systems we live in impact our bodies, psyches and beliefs about ourselves and capabilities which shows up in my work with clients. I view my clients and their experiences through a holistic perspective which takes into account their mind, body, soul, culture, and systems they live within including intergenerational trauma, wisdom and strength.

As an experienced therapist I have learned that emotional, physical and environmental factors contribute to clients overall mental health. Because of this I take a holistic counseling approach to help my clients achieve balance, resilience, and a deeper sense of fulfillment in their lives.
