Title : Healing from within: A journey of somatic wisdom and holistic wellness
Abstract:
This training session delves into the harmonization of traditional and contemporary practices in mental health care. With extensive experience in both clinical psychology and holistic mental health strategies, I guide participants through the integration of age-old wisdom and modern scientific approaches to mental health. The session emphasizes the importance of a holistic perspective, incorporating elements such as mindfulness, herbal medicine, and psychotherapy to offer a comprehensive approach to mental health care. Through practical exercises, this training aims to equip mental health professionals with the tools to provide integrative mental health care that addresses the needs of the whole person. With a background deeply rooted in decolonizing mental health and trauma-informed care, I specialize in integrating indigenous wisdom, herbalism, and somatic experiencing techniques into therapeutic interventions. As a licensed professional counselor, I am dedicated to promoting holistic healing, emphasizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. With a passion for community-centered approaches,I facilitate transformative healing experiences that honor diverse cultural perspectives. In this guided healing workshop, I invite participants on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Through experiential exercises, mindfulness practices, and group discussions, attendees will learn practical tools for accessing their innate healing potential and releasing stored trauma. I will guide participants in reconnecting with the wisdom of their bodies, accessing the healing power of plants and nature, and cultivating a deeper sense of inner harmony and resilience. This workshop offers a safe and supportive space for individuals to embark on a transformative journey of healing and self-discovery.
