At The Holistic Counseling Center, we believe true healing happens when we treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. Our holistic approach integrates evidence-based psychotherapy with mind-body practices to support emotional, mental, physical and spiritual wellness.

How we approach holistic psychotherapy:

  • Clinically Grounded, Spiritually Informed
    Our work is rooted in evidence-based therapeutic methods while also honoring the spiritual dimensions of your life. Each therapist brings training in both traditional psychology and holistic practices.

  • Beyond Symptom Management
    We look beneath the surface to understand what’s driving your distress. Together, we explore the emotional, physical, energetic, social, cultural and spiritual threads of your experience.

  • Respectful, Strength-Based Support
    We view your struggles as messages worth listening to, not as evidence that you’re “broken.” We work collaboratively to uncover the meaning behind your symptoms and to sharpen the tools and self-love you need to heal.

  • Practical Skills + Deep Inner Work
    Our sessions offer a balance of grounded, everyday strategies and deeper therapeutic exploration. Whether you’re learning to regulate your nervous system, engaging in shadow work, or reconnecting with your inner child, each step is designed to help you grow in ways that feel supportive and sustainable.

Take the next step toward healing. Book a complimentary consultation to learn more about our practice and how we can help. Our holistic therapists bring both clinical expertise and lived experience in healing, offering support that’s not only professional, but deeply attuned to the complexity of this human experience.
