What is Holistic Mental Health Treatment?
Holistic mental health treatment is an all-encompassing approach that combines traditional psychological treatments with alternative therapies. This method acknowledges the complex interplay between the mind, body, and spirit in mental health and aims to provide a more personalized and effective treatment plan for each individual.
What is Holistic Therapy?
Holistic therapy emphasizes treating the entire person, not just the symptoms of a mental illness. This approach recognizes that emotional well-being, physical health, spiritual beliefs, and personal relationships are all integral components of an individual’s mental health. A study in the Journal of Holistic Nursing found that holistic care, including mindfulness and stress management, significantly improved mental health outcomes in patients with chronic conditions.
In addition, holistic therapy considers an individual’s unique physical, emotional, spiritual, and social needs. This integrated approach allows for more effective and sustainable mental health treatment. One study found that personalized holistic treatments could lead to better patient engagement and improved mental health outcomes.

Types of Holistic Therapy We Provide
At Novu Wellness, we offer a variety of holistic therapies designed to complement traditional treatments and cater to the diverse needs of our clients. Each therapy type is grounded in evidence-based research and aims to target different aspects of mental health and well-being.
Meditation: Meditation is a practice of mindfulness and focused attention. It can take many forms, including guided imagery, mindfulness meditation, and transcendental meditation.Studies have shown that meditation can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve attention, and even alter brain structures related to stress and empathy.
Neurofeedback: Also known as EEG biofeedback, involves monitoring and altering brain wave patterns. It’s particularly effective for conditions like ADHD, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. One study found that neurofeedback led to significant improvements in ADHD symptoms. Our center uses state-of-the-art neurofeedback technology to help clients learn how to modulate their own brain activity for improved mental health outcomes.
Yoga: Yoga is a holistic practice combining physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation. It can range from gentle to physically demanding. Research has consistently shown yoga’s effectiveness in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression.
Nutritional Guidance: This involves assessing and improving dietary habits to support mental health. It includes personalized meal planning, nutritional supplements, and education about the gut-brain connection. There’s growing evidence linking diet and mental health.
How We Integrate Holistic Therapy into Our Georgia Mental Health Treatment Programs
We incorporate holistic therapies into various levels of care, ensuring that each client receives a comprehensive and individualized treatment experience. Our programs, including the Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), and Virtual IOP, are designed to integrate holistic methods seamlessly with traditional mental health treatments.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): The PHP is a structured yet flexible program designed for individuals who require more intensive treatment than traditional outpatient care but don’t need 24-hour supervision. In our PHP, clients engage in a daily regimen that includes both clinical therapies and holistic practices. This might involve starting the day with yoga or meditation to improve mental clarity and emotional balance, followed by group and individual therapy sessions.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Our IOP is designed for those who need structured therapy but also require the flexibility to maintain their daily responsibilities like work or school. In IOP, holistic therapies are woven into the treatment schedule. For instance, a client might participate in a mindfulness meditation session to develop coping skills for stress, followed by cognitive-behavioral therapy to address specific mental health issues. This program offers a supportive environment where clients can practice new holistic skills in real-world settings. We also provide educational workshops on topics like the importance of nutrition in mental health, emphasizing the holistic approach to wellness.
Virtual IOP: The Virtual IOP is our innovative response to the need for accessible mental health care, offering the same level of care as our in-person IOP but through a secure online platform. The Virtual IOP ensures that clients have continuous access to holistic therapies, regardless of their location. This format is particularly beneficial for those who may have mobility issues, live in remote areas, or have busy schedules.
