Holistic psychotherapy is an approach to therapy that considers the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—rather than just treating specific symptoms or mental health conditions. It integrates traditional psychological methods with alternative and complementary techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and energy work. The goal is to promote overall well-being and personal growth by addressing emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of a person’s life.

Trauma-Informed Therapist vs. Trauma Specialist Trauma-Informed Therapist: A trauma-informed therapist is someone who understands how trauma can affect a person’s life, behaviors, and relationships. They approach therapy with awareness and sensitivity to trauma, creating a safe and supportive environment. While they may help clients who have experienced trauma, they may not have advanced, specialized training to treat complex or severe trauma. Trauma Specialist: A trauma specialist is a therapist with advanced training and experience in treating trauma. They are skilled in evidence-based approaches specifically designed for trauma recovery, such as EMDR, Parts Work, somatic therapies, or other specialized modalities. Trauma specialists are prepared to work with more complex trauma, PTSD, dissociation, and relational or childhood trauma, helping clients process their experiences safely and effectively. In short: • Trauma-informed therapists understand trauma and provide a safe, sensitive environment. • Trauma specialists actively treat trauma using specialized techniques and in-depth expertise.

I am an out-of-network provider, which means payment is due at the time of your session, and you may then seek reimbursement from your insurance. Some clients receive full reimbursement, while others have no out-of-network coverage—so it's essential to check with your insurance company to understand your benefits. With high deductibles being common, many people end up paying out of pocket whether they see an in-network or out-of-network provider. The real question becomes: would you rather choose a counselor you feel comfortable with, or let your insurance company decide for you?

Yes
