Why Work with an Integrative, Holistic Psychologist?
Feeling stressed? Going through a tough time in your life? Is it hard to find the motivation and energy to live the life you desire? You are in the right place.
Every successful person, no matter what their role in life – executive, athlete, student, artist, mother, father, etc. has a team of people to support them in achieving their accomplishments. An integrative, holistic psychologist is an ideal person to have on your “team.”
What makes us different is that not only we are trained in clinical psychology, but as integrative, holistic psychologists, we are knowledgeable about the relationship between the mind and the body and attend to both in counseling sessions. In a psychotherapy session, for example, in addition to traditional psychotherapy techniques, we might use nutrition, mindfulness and yoga, to heal your brain, calm your mind, and improve your mood. We also honor the challenges of being a spiritual being living this human experience. It is not easy, is it? But with the right tools and the compassionate support that we offer, powerful shifts are possible to help you live your healthiest, most fully-expressed, life.
