As a therapist that is trained in a Health Psychology / Behavioral Medicine emphasis, I encourage us to look at how our mind / body / and spirituality are all interconnected. Where as I may pull from varying schools of thought such as Psychodynamic, Cognitive/Behavioural, Humanistic/Person Centred, and Existentialism I find that looking at how these experiences effect our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours can give us insight into how we can become more wholly integrated and mentally healthy along our journey.
