In today's episode of Psych Talk I speak with Chris McDonald, a Licensed Professional Counselor and holistic therapist in North Carolina. Chris shares her journey in the mental health field and how she started integrating holistic practices into her therapy sessions. We discuss how "holistic" has become a buzzword on social media and some misconceptions and stigma surrounding the term. Chris shares with listeners various holistic practices she utilizes in therapy, discusses the evidence-based, and shares how integrating traditional therapy and holistic interventions can enhance outcomes for clients. We also discuss how to find a holistic practitioner if you are seeking such an approach for your own therapy.
