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 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

It's important to look at multiple dimensions of your health and wellness. In our work together, we may explore your physical health, social relationships, financials, etc. We may discuss non-invasive and non-medication based methods to naturally support your system. We may also engage in movement based work to ground you in your body. I've also worked with people to understand how they relate to their finances and debt. We are one system, with many many parts.

— Emily Natale, Art Therapist in Providence, RI
 

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.

— Rebecca May, Counselor in Middletown, OH

Holistic therapy views you as a whole being—mind, body, heart, and spirit. It supports healing by addressing emotional patterns, physical wellbeing, and spiritual connection, helping you create balance, clarity, and deeper self-awareness in all areas of your life.

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.

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.

— 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.
