Integrative Psychotherapy
Integrative Psychotherapy is an approach to healing and easing life’s problems by increasing your resilience and personal resources. It incorporates the fundamental principles of traditional psychotherapy and holistic medicine to promote healing on all levels: emotional physical, mental and spiritual. Integrative Psychotherapy aims to create a healthy alliance between your mind and body that enables you to manage stress and create a healthy lifestyle.
We know that our minds can quickly jump to worst-case scenarios, worry and self-defeating behaviors. We can feel overwhelmed, lose direction, and lose our center. These patterns of thought contribute to illness, stuck relationships, and loss of self esteem. At the Maryland Center for Integrative Medicine (MCIM), our therapists work with you to develop and strengthen your mental and emotional health. We help you increase the strengths that you have, discover new ways of managing current stressors, and create strategies to assist your movement onto a positive future.
What can Integrative Psychotherapy do for me?
Persons who enter into Integrative Psychotherapy are choosing a path of self-exploration that can yield many benefits. Therapy can help you identify the causes of your current concerns. It can also help to identify factors that maintain the problem. Therapy can help you become aware of fears or hurts that limit your psychological freedom. As you come to understand what triggers your pain, anxiousness, or moodiness, the old patterns lose their hold. With the help of your therapist, you can set goals and practice new, healthy behaviors, enabling changes to occur as you feel the courage and support to move beyond prior limitations of thought and attitude.
Why seek Integrative Psychotherapy?
In this culture we often believe we should “do it on our own,” and if that fails, then “just give me the pill to fix it.” Seeking psychotherapy is a positive step towards a more sustained sense of well-being. It is our intention that you will get to the point that you CAN do it on your own. We encourage you to bring to therapy the intention of reaching your goals to live a happier, less stressful, and more fulfilling life. We will help you do the work that will enable you to achieve your goals.
