Holistic Therapy

Focus is geared towards the individuals physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being. This approach consists of various practices of expressive arts, meditation, relaxation, nutrition, physical movement, and interpersonal connection.

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!

I find the holistic approach complimentary in working with life transitions which can be a change in the body, mind, or spirit. My education and experience in hospice and palliative care and specializing with adults and aging have lead me to assess and treat people with a biopsychosocial and spiritual model taking into consideration the entire human being and their life experiences that will guide discovery, transformation and the willingness to thrive.

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.

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.

Our therapists are committed to addressing the whole person in the therapeutic relationship. We are mindful to integrate spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional well-being in our treatment approaches. We assist individuals in developing a deeper understanding of themselves by embracing the entire individual.

I use transpersonal psychology tools.

Approach aligns with the understanding that one's well-being is derived from the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit. I integrate a variety of techniques that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client, drawing from a wide range of disciplines. This may include traditional psychotherapy methods, mindfulness practices, nutritional guidance, physical activity recommendations, and spiritual exploration, depending on what suits the individual's lifestyle and preferences.

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.

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.

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

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.

I believe that the most effective healing looks at the whole person, where they're coming from, and uses many tools from the tool box. In addition to traditional psychotherapy, I can incorporate energy healing such as Reiki or shamanic energy medicine. I also believe many other forms of self-care, physical therapies, or forms of alternative medicine can support a person as well.

Holistic therapy recognizes the profound connection between the mind, body, and spirit, considering them integral parts of the whole person. With the support of a holistic therapist, clients embark on a journey of deepening awareness and acceptance, embracing the complete self. This approach emphasizes the importance of listening to both the mind and body, fostering a spiritual understanding that promotes holistic well-being.

I incorporate metaphysical complementary modalities with clinical therapeutic techniques to achieve healing and wellness. I collaborate with other specialized providers as appropriate to offer a thorough and balanced approach to care.
