What is
Inclusive Integrative
Mental Health?
Inclusive Integrative
Mental Health?
Inclusive, integrative mental health supports a systems approach to mental health utilizing both conventional and alternative treatments within a holistic framework. This model supports mind, body, and spirit with a multi-system, collaborative perspective.
While traditional counseling methods concentrate on the client's psychological symptoms and consequences (cognitive and behavioral), holistic therapy includes physical (nutrition, gut health, impacts of chronic stress, movement, etc.) and spiritual contexts as well as environmental factors (pollution, social supports, systemic, cultural contexts, etc.).
The 3-Core Integrative certification course will equip you with the knowledge, tools, practices, and confidence to enhance your practice and empower your clients. You will go beyond a basic understanding of the 3 pillars of mindfulness, movement, and nutrition using a bio-psycho-social-spiritual approach to meet clients where they are and sustain lasting impact on your personal and professional development.

Course Features
Movement
Movement is often under-utilized despite being one of the most effective methods for reducing the impact of stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma on the body and mind. This module covers multiple aspects of movement in relation to mental health such as yoga and basic somatic practices.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness and other styles of meditation have been practiced for thousands of years for spiritual development, equanimity, and working with the concept of suffering. Mindfulness focuses on awareness of feelings, thoughts, and sensations, aiding in symptom reduction in the therapeutic context. This module provides you with how to work with meditation in your practice in an ethical, practical, and authentic way for lasting results.
Nutrition
Nutrition, diet, and body image are factors that are frequently addressed in a therapeutic setting and profoundly affect mental and physical wellbeing. This module will equip you with current research linking many symptoms that negatively impact our clients such as nutrient deficiencies, gut health, and diet culture. We provide a balance of research, guidelines, and therapeutic tools to address all layers of the impact nutrition has on mental health.
Social + Environmental Lens
An inclusive, integrative approach acknowledges the impact of social and environmental factors on the lives and health of our clients. Each module addresses factors that are often overlooked but that can greatly improve outcomes, therapeutic relationship, and most of all empowerment and healing for your clients.
