Holistic Therapy

As a certified nurse-midwife with expanded knowledge and experience in primary care and mental health, I am comprehensive and holistic in my approach to care integrating medication with other therapies to help you achieve wellness. I won't just treat your brain -- I'll treat the whole you. We'll address physical health, hormones, and sexual pain and dysfunction on your mental well-being and expand treatment as needed to help you be your best self!

It is important that we look at you as a whole person as we address your needs in counseling since there may be other factors that contribute to your mental health needs. This may include addressing your mental health, physical health, spiritual health, relationship/social health, career health, and anything else that may play a contributing role in your holistic wellness.

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

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.

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 take a comprehensive approach to healing, addressing not just the mind, but the body as well. I integrate various therapeutic techniques, including mindfulness, and body awareness, to support overall well-being. By recognizing the interconnectedness of thoughts, emotions, and physical health, I help clients find balance and alignment in all areas of their lives. My goal is to empower clients to cultivate self-awareness, resilience, and lasting support.

I believe that true healing requires attending to one's mental, physical, and spiritual needs. I utilize an approach that incorporates both traditional and alternative approaches to more comprehensively support you in your healing process.

I am a trauma-informed counselor employing a biopsychosocial approach. Further, My approach is ecological and holistic, meaning I work with the whole system even as we focus on a goal. We are all vastly complex. We are also very embedded with patterns, some useful and others not as much. Counseling is a perfect place to explore our complexity and patterns and to choose how to cultivate ongoing meaning and authentic expression in a non-judgmental environment.

I use transpersonal psychology tools.

I believe in a holistic approach connecting the mind, body, and spirit to find balance and calm. Using mindfulness and integrative therapeutic practices to work through the various emotions, thoughts, and feelings that may arise in a session. I focus on mind-body integration to help you stay present and grounded, with breathwork and gentle movements.

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

Mental health doesn't exist in a vacuum. All parts of who you are as a person can affect (and be affected by) your mental state. I encourage people to examine what they notice in their mind, heart, body, and all different aspects of their life. This allows us to feel more whole as human beings, and can improve our relationships with all different pieces of our lives.

A PyschoSpiritual approach is a lovely because it holds many therapy interventions that are integral for healing! You will find hints of Feminist Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Trauma Therapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy. It is a sacred space and tool to explore the subconscious and the conscious, and how they work together to honor your intentions and intuitions. Specifically for me I am trained in incorporating Tarot Card pulls, ritualization, and art expression like writing.

I describe myself as a holistic therapist. What does that mean? Holistic therapists view their clients as whole people rather than collections of symptoms and problems. Using this lens, I help my clients better understand themselves, develop self-acceptance, focus on personal growth, and live fuller lives.

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.

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.

Holistic Therapy is important because it incorporates our whole-person (i.e. body, mind, spirit) needs into the healing process. For example, the unmet needs of our creative spirit can negatively impact our sense of self-worth or how stretching in the morning can relax our minds. It's all connected!
