About Holistic Counseling
Holistic counseling is a therapeutic approach that considers a person's entire being—mind, body, emotions, and spirit—in the healing and personal growth process. Instead of focusing solely on specific symptoms or issues, holistic counselors aim to address all aspects of a person's life to help them achieve greater balance, self-awareness, and well-being.
Key Elements of Holistic Counseling
-
Mind-Body Connection: Holistic counselors emphasize the interconnectedness of mental and physical health. They might explore how physical habits, stress, or lifestyle factors contribute to emotional and mental states.
-
Emotional and Spiritual Health: Holistic counseling often integrates techniques that address emotional health and, if relevant to the client, spiritual beliefs and practices. This may include meditation, mindfulness, or visualization exercises to foster inner peace and clarity.
-
Personal Growth and Self-Exploration: The counselor helps clients gain self-awareness and understand the underlying causes of issues. This process can empower individuals to make conscious choices and pursue meaningful change.
-
Alternative and Integrative Therapies: Many holistic counselors draw on complementary approaches like mindfulness, energy work (e.g., Reiki), breathing exercises, or somatic (body-centered) practices. These tools support the client’s overall sense of well-being.
-
Focus on Relationships and Lifestyle: Holistic counseling considers the broader context of a person's life, including relationships, work, and personal goals. These aspects are seen as integral to a person's mental and emotional health.
Benefits of Holistic Counseling
Holistic counseling aims to:
-
Reduce stress and promote relaxation.
-
Foster resilience and a sense of purpose.
-
Support personal transformation and fulfillment.
-
Encourage a deeper connection to oneself and others.
This approach appeals to individuals looking for a more comprehensive and personalized form of support that goes beyond traditional talk therapy.
Why do people see a counselor?
As I pointed earlier, people seek a counselor for several reasons. Perhaps, you could feel ‘stuck’ and don’t understand what the direction or purpose of your life is. Maybe a life event has created a very uncomfortable shift or change in your life. Or you wish to engage in spiritual and holistic conversations but don’t know anyone who would offer you an unbiased opinion in a safe environment.
Regardless of what the reason may be, holistic counseling offers you confidence and clarity, new perspective and insights, and an overall feeling of well-being and empowerment.
What symptoms can be addressed by a counselor?
There are endless topics that you can discuss with your counselor. Here are a few common examples:
-
Stress management
-
Spirituality
-
Self-esteem
-
Relationship issues
-
Life transitions
-
Life coaching
-
Identity
-
Decision-making difficulties
-
Coping skills
-
Career guidance

Trauma
-
Addictions
Who can benefit from holistic counseling?
Anyone who’s concerned about spiritual growth, relationships, career, purpose, wealth and health can benefit from holistic counseling.
There comes a point in our lives, where we continue to feel anxious or depressed for a prolonged period of time. Or we’re trying to make peace with challenges that life has given us but are unable to do so. This means that our future changes with every choice we make and as we evolve. A slight shift in who we are could lead to a drastic change in our future. Holistic counseling solely focuses on the blockages that stop you from achieving your dreams. It assists you in identifying all the energies that are stopping you from changing a pattern.
Also, it’s crucial for you to understand that your counselor can just give you the tools to change but you can only change when you’re ready! Sometimes, no matter how many counselors and healers you see, you’ll see no difference. This happens not because your healer didn’t know what they were doing but because you weren’t ready to let go.
Frequently asked questions
How long is an individual session?
Generally, a single session runs for 60 minutes.
Your first session is an informational gathering meeting. This a what I like to call an Unearthing Session. You will have a chance to interact with your counselor and share what you are hoping to obtain from your sessions and find out if Holistic Counseling is a right fit for you. Your Unearthing Session is FREE as I want to make sure you are comfortable with your experience and to reassure, we will be able to assist you.
If you need more time to benefit from the energetic, emotional and practical offerings, please let your counselor know and we can accommodate this in our scheduling.
How many sessions are needed?
No right answer can be given for this question. We’re all different people, requiring a different type of support.
Do I need to prepare a certain way for intuitive counseling?
No. There are no special requirements you need to do prior to your session. We just as that you come open and willing to work with a counselor on obtaining clarity in your life.
Will holistic counseling cure me?
Again, no. Just as with other forms of counseling, holistic counseling is not a solidary treatment. Counseling is not what cures an individual, the individual cures thyself. Holistic counseling simply aids an individual in navigating life’s stressors and provides options for ways to cope.
Is holistic counseling magic?
Also, no. There are no spells, potions, or hocus pocus. We don’t have a cauldron or make animal sacrifices.
Holistic counseling is sitting down, talking with a counselor about your issues and allowing them to use their own knowledge and expertise to guide you to your truth.
How to choose a counselor?
You should choose someone who focuses on the counseling
aspect and has a professional degree in this field. This will allow
them to combine their natural intuitive abilities with their
professional qualifications. A good counselor will have both
claircognizance (knowing) and clairsentience (feeling) abilities.
It’s an added bonus if they’ve learned any healing modalities.
Check for the number of sacred texts, teachings and studies
they’ve learnt so far.
To sum up, you want a counselor who is clear, connected and can
provide a safe space for the session. Your counselor should be
focused on your issues rather than their own. You require their
undivided attention and alignment in order to truly benefit from a
session.
Actively listening while being able to hold a space for someone else is a gift, not many possess. Most individuals just want to be seen and heard for who they really are. Being able to offer them this opportunity is evolving towards love.

**Please note that counselors can’t read your future and can only work with you on your present spiritual path. They’re not doctors and can’t diagnose and prescribe medications. Since each individual processes energy differently, its impossible to promise so as to what will happen when you receive healing or reading.**
