Company Description

Holistic Trauma Therapy (www.holistictraumatherapy.com) provides a comprehensive approach that integrates psychology, consciousness, and holistic modalities to heal the mind-body-spirit connection. Our practice helps individuals navigate various forms of trauma, from personal and childhood experiences to challenges in the corporate world. Using advanced trauma training, somatic experiencing, and transpersonal psychology, we create a safe space for clients to explore their healing journey. We focus on reconnecting clients with their true selves, releasing stored tension, and expanding consciousness to rediscover meaning and purpose. Our aim is to help clients restore balance and thrive both personally and professionally.

Associates joining our team gain exposure to a wide range of clinical experiences, treating a variety of issues within their scope of practice as clinicians. Our practice values clinical excellence and holistic, integrative care. While our orientation leans toward psychodynamic and depth psychotherapy, we also incorporate modern, evidence-based modalities such as EMDR and CBT/DBT coping skills/stabilization.

In addition to weekly supervision, we offer professional mentorship designed to help Associates develop both as therapists and as future private practice owners, building the clinical, relational, and business skills necessary to sustain a successful career in private practice. Our goal is to foster the development of clinicians so that they may thrive in the practice.
