What is Holistic Counseling?
Holistic Counseling: A Mind-Body-Spirit Approach to Root-Cause Healing. Holistic Counseling is a mind-body-spirit approach that helps you understand why you think, feel, and react the way you do. Rather than managing symptoms, this process explores the subconscious beliefs and emotional patterns that shape your mental, emotional, and physical experience.
Core Principles
Innate Wisdom of the Body & Mind
Your body and subconscious mind carry messages, memories, and insights that can lead to profound healing when brought to light.

You are your own guide—Dr. Leia facilitates focused inquiry to help you uncover beliefs, emotions, and patterns ready for transformation.

Mind-Body
Inquiry Techniques
Through precise, open-ended questions, you’ll tune into bodily sensations, emotional responses, and inner dialogue to uncover root causes.

Bridging emotional awareness, spiritual insight, and physical experience to restore balance on all levels—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.

It Might Be a Great Fit If:
✓ You’re curious about the emotional roots of your physical or mental health concerns
✓ You’re ready to explore your inner world and feel more connected to your authentic self
✓ You value a counseling approach that honors the whole you—mind, body, and spirit
✓ You’ve tried other therapies but feel something deeper is missing
It May Not Be the Right Fit If:
✗ You’re seeking a quick fix without deeper inner work
✗ You want someone to diagnose you
✗ You’re resistant to introspection or emotional exploration
How Is Holistic Counseling Different?
Holistic Counseling goes beyond traditional talk therapy by:
Addressing both mind and body.
Identifying limiting beliefs that fuel negative emotions, and therefore physical symptoms.
Promoting true transformation instead of surface-level symptom management.
Offering efficient breakthroughs—often in fewer sessions than conventional therapy.
