Counseling THAT supportS the whole You!
Healing deepens when we weave all parts of ourselves
Welcome to Integrative Mind Body Counseling PLLC!
Welcome
Are you feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities, stress, or unresolved challenges that leave you burned out—with self-care falling to the bottom of your list? You’re not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it on your own.
I’m Johanna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate, and at Integrative Mind Body Counseling, I provide holistic, individualized therapy that honors the deep connection between mind, body, and heart. Together, we’ll focus on restoring balance, building resilience, and reconnecting with your inner strengths so you can thrive in daily life.
Following the NCCIH’s vision of integrative health, I bring together evidence-based counseling and holistic practices to restore balance across mind, body, and heart.
How the Mind Shapes the Body
Modern neuroscience confirms the profound impact of mental states on the body:
Stress Response: Worry and rumination raise cortisol, blood pressure, and heart rate.
Immune Suppression: Chronic stress can weaken the immune system, increasing vulnerability to illness.
Physiological Strain: Negative thought patterns contribute to fatigue, poor sleep, and inflammation.
Healing Potential: Mindfulness and reframing can restore balance, strengthen immunity, and support recovery.

How the Body Shapes the Mind
Integrative nutrition highlights the two-way communication between body and mind, often referred to as the gut–brain axis:
Gut–Brain Communication: The digestive system and brain interact through neural, immune, and hormonal pathways.
Microbiome Influence: A nourished gut microbiome supports mood, memory, and cognitive performance.
Nutritional Impact: Diets high in processed foods or low in nutrients can contribute to fatigue, irritability, or depressed mood.
