Holistic Therapy

A holistic approach to therapy leads with the big picture. Holistic psychotherapy, an integrative treatment method, emphasizes the relationship between the mind, body, and spirit, attempting to understand and address the ways issues in one aspect of a person can manifest in other areas. Therapists who use a holistic approach typically believe that seeing each client as a whole being with interconnected emotions, physical feelings, thoughts and spiritual experiences is fundamental to providing successful care. Holistic therapists will help clients gain a deeper understanding of their whole self, which can build self-awareness and self-acceptance. Holistic Therapy is used to treat a number of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and mood regulation.  Think this approach might be right for you?

Holistic therapy integrates the mind, body, and emotions to address the root causes of your challenges, not just the symptoms. By exploring how your thoughts, physical sensations, and emotional patterns are connected, we’ll work to release stored tension, heal past wounds, and build healthier ways to cope. This comprehensive approach helps foster clarity, balance, and a deeper connection to yourself, empowering you to move forward with renewed strength and purpose.

— Rachel Boll, Licensed Professional Counselor in Hillsboro, OR

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.

— Ugo Ndubaku, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in Valencia, CA

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.

— Dr. Dana Avey, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Colorado Springs, CO
 

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!

— Shavonne James, Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Long Beach, CA

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.

— Kallan Palmer, Mental Health Counselor
 

Holistic therapy utilizes a range of techniques to help individuals understand their symptoms. In addition, such strategies are designed to foster a greater sense of self-awareness to better understand the connections between their body, mind, and relationships and how these elements play a role in mental health. Mindfulness practices are utilized as well as learning how to self-regulate emotions and nervous system. Walk & Talk therapy would be a great option for this approach.

— Lindsay Dornier, Clinical Social Worker in The Woodlands, TX

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.

— Angelique Gutekunst, Licensed Professional Counselor in Bethlehem, PA
 

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.
