What is the difference between clinical and psychosomatic counseling?
Clinical Counseling -vs- Psychosomatic Counseling
Do you need to address depression, existential meaning in your life, or open your brain networks to buried/blocked resources? There are different scopes of practice available in the wellness industry depending on what approach to healing best matches the client’s personal belief system and goal.
Clinical counseling relies on evidence based treatment that has been tested in a lab and brought to the market and utilizes the mind and academics. Psychosomatic counseling is holistic, and relies on ancient wisdom, spirituality, and using spiritual gifts from the heart.
Persistent Sadness
Do you wonder what the point of all this is? Do you feel a constant cloud of grief and low energy? Healing isn’t meant to hold you temporarily afloat. Coping isn’t your baseline. The shame and grief you carry so deeply can be processed. I target several layers in the bio-field, where deeply held shame, isolation and loss are activating. The natural, somatic process that I facilitate, is gentle but incredibly powerful.
Existential Crisis
Have you been looking for a space to safely navigate the intersection of mental health and spirituality/faith? I’ve worked with Christian prayer warriors, guided sacred medicine journeys, and held space to process serious trauma. I believe in spiritual inclusivity. God or your Higher Power heal ailments simultaneous with conventional, mainstream tools. I am present to hold the space and guide your process.
Active Defense
Threats to self cause held tension, deep grief, fear and panic. Bringing more light, unconditional love, and trust into these dark spaces allows healing. This process requires careful consideration, deep listening and attentiveness, as we introduce resources to your mind-body, calming nervous system responses. The art of healing is gentle, non-invasive, honoring of self, and receiving divine resources to fill up.
