How are Holistic Health Counselors different from a Therapist or a Psychologist?
Holistic Health Counselors, Therapists and Psychologists all help people to overcome psychological problems. Holistic Health Counselors go beyond traditional psychology in order to reach the human psyche, which is not only the ‘root’ cause of all problems, but also the means to move forward in a positive way with special tools and techniques. Holistic Health Counselors do not prescribe medicine/drugs. Holistic Health is a term used by alternative medicine advocates to describe medical care that views physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of life as closely interconnected and balanced. While therapists and psychologists do help heal issues, Holistic Health Counselors not only heals issues, but works with all aspects of the client as a whole – the mind, the body, the spirit, connected as one.
