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 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 integrates the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of well-being.

I see the value in every different approach and modality in therapy, so I try to tailor my approach to each individual client and their unique, everchanging issues using holistic therapy. I have used mindfulness, CBT, ACT, person-centered, psychodynamic, and DBT all with one client so far depending on what they needed with each session.

— Gulsanam Azieva, Mental Health Counselor in New York, NY
 

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!
