OUR APPROACH
The Whole Healing Model
The Whole Healing Model brings evidence based mental health ideas together into one comprehensive, whole person approach.
The Whole Healing Model is an integrative approach to mental health care. We build on the strengths of traditional therapy while looking more broadly at the factors that shape mental health, with the goal of creating care that is personalized, practical, and built for lasting change.
Our goal is to understand the deeper picture, create a personalized treatment plan, and help each person build the knowledge and skills needed for lasting growth.
The Foundation of Mental Health:
The Four Healing Circles
Biological
We explore sleep, nutrition, movement, medications, and other biological factors that influence emotional wellbeing.
Psychological
We analyze thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and past experiences to help you understand yourself and the world.
Social & Environment
We work to understand relational influences and life circumstances that support your healing journey.
Meaning & Purpose
Healing also involves deeper questions about values, identity, purpose, and what makes life worth living.
We Look for the Root Cause
Mental health rarely has one simple cause. We look across the whole picture to better understand the experiences, patterns, biological factors, relationships, habits, and circumstances that may be driving or maintaining your symptoms.
Neuroscience Informed Approach
Your brain can learn, adapt, and change through neuroplasticity. We help you understand the neuroscience behind what you are experiencing and how your behaviors, environment, relationships, and daily habits can influence your brain and mental health over time.
Personalized, Integrative Therapy
Every person and every brain is different. We draw from evidence based approaches including CBT, ACT, ERP, DBT, motivational interviewing, trauma focused therapies, psychodynamic approaches, mindfulness, and other proven tools to build treatment around you.
Measure, Adjust, and Keep Looking
We regularly track symptoms, goals, and progress. If something is not working, we reassess, adjust the approach, and consider other evidence based options or outside providers when appropriate.
Become Your Own Healer
You are the healer. We are the guide.
​
Therapy should help you become increasingly capable of understanding and helping yourself. Our goal is to help you build insight, healthier patterns, stronger social connections, and a personal toolkit of skills that you can use in everyday life.
​
Over time, we want you to understand what helps you stay well and feel increasingly confident managing your mental health on your own.
