Holistic therapy, which is an approach to mental health that considers the whole person, including their physical, emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing, rather than focusing solely on symptoms. This method integrates various techniques and practices to address all aspects of your life, aiming to bring about comprehensive wellness and balance.
At Long Beach Therapy, we believe that it is important to look at the “whole person”, so holistic therapy is an approach that we use to make sure that all of your needs, at every level, are being nurtured.
The first step in therapy is building a trusting and confidential relationship between you and your therapist. This is crucial because a strong therapeutic alliance can significantly impact the effectiveness (and speed) of the therapy.
If you feel that the therapist is providing you a safe and non-judgmental place to share your thoughts and experiences, you will be more likely to achieve your goals.
At Long Beach Therapy, our goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental place where we can help our client’s reach their full potential by processing feelings (past and present issues), improving communication, and exploring family issues that may be a barrier to success. We have worked with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families with various issues including:
Depression, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Increasing Intimacy, Coming Out Issues, Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity, Self Esteem, Trauma & PTSD, Sexual Assault, Bereavement, and more.
