Wholistic Alignment is more than a name—it’s a way of healing.
It means honoring the whole you—mind, body, and spirit—so you can stop just surviving and start feeling connected, rested, and aligned again.
We combine evidence-based therapy with body-based wellness practices like breathwork, yoga, sound healing, and journaling to help you:
Regulate and Reset your nervous system
Reconnect with your emotions and needs
Reclaim your peace, power, and purpose
Whether you’re working through trauma, anxiety, burnout, or just feeling off—Wholistic Alignment is about guiding you back to yourself. At your pace. In your way. For real.
- 02
A holistic approach means we’re not just focusing on your symptoms—we’re supporting your whole self: mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, occupationally, financially, environmentally, intellectually, and energetically.
Instead of taking a typical approach to addressing burnout, anxiety, or emotional pain, we help you understand what’s going on underneath—and guide you to heal from the inside out.
Benefits of a holistic approach can include:
Feeling more calm, centered, and regulated
Better sleep and improved energy
Reduced anxiety and stress
Feeling emotionally safe in your own body again
Stronger boundaries, clarity, and self-trust
Deep connection to your intuition and inner peace
Tools you can actually use when life feels heavy
It’s about alignment, not perfection. Wellness that feels like you, not a basic checklist.
- 03
Our services are designed for women, teens, parents, and professionals who are ready to move from survival mode into wholistic alignment. Whether you're…
A high-achieving Black woman craving rest, clarity, and emotional reset
A teen girl navigating anxiety, transitions, or identity
A parent looking for support as you hold space for everyone else
An educator or helper feeling the weight of burnout and compassion fatigue
A therapist or social worker wanting to do your own healing while you hold others
Or someone who’s simply ready to reconnect with your body, emotions, and spirit—
We see you. And we’ve created therapy and wellness spaces just for you. Our approach blends evidence-based care with body-based healing to help you regulate, reconnect, and reclaim your sense of self.

IFS stands for Internal Family Systems, and it’s one of the main ways we help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface.
You know how sometimes one part of you wants to rest, but another part feels guilty? Or one part wants to speak up, but another shuts down? IFS helps you get to know those parts, not judge them.
We all have different parts that developed to help us survive—like the overthinker, the avoider, the achiever, the inner critic. IFS helps you understand where those parts come from, what they’re protecting, and how to bring more calm, clarity, and compassion into the mix.
In session, you’ll learn to:
Tune in to your inner world with curiosity
Understand emotional triggers instead of being ruled by them
Heal the parts of you that are still holding onto old pain
Connect with your grounded, wise, most authentic Self
It’s not about “fixing” you—it’s about reconnecting with who you’ve always been.

Yoga and mindfulness are integrated to help you reconnect with your body and the present moment. Yoga involves gentle movements and poses that release tension and promote relaxation. Mindfulness practices, such as guided meditation, help cultivate awareness and compassion, reducing anxiety and stress.

While our practice centers the healing of Black women and girls—because we believe representation, safety, and cultural attunement matter—our doors are open to anyone seeking trauma-informed, wholistic care.
We welcome all individuals who resonate with our approach, values, and offerings. If you're looking for a space rooted in compassion, nervous system care, and mind-body healing, you're in the right place.

During a session, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where your healing process is honored—mind, body, and spirit.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all healing. Every session is tailored to you and your goals through open collaboration with your therapist or wellness provider.
Depending on your needs and the type of session (therapy or wellness), we may incorporate:
Grounding exercises to help you settle into your body
Breathwork or mindfulness to calm the nervous system
Guided journaling to process emotions and patterns
Somatic healing techniques to release stuck energy
Gentle yoga or movement to connect with your body
Expressive arts, inner child work, or visualization
Sound healing or chakra balancing for emotional reset
Whether you’re coming to release, reflect, rest, or reconnect—you’ll leave with greater clarity, regulation, and tools to carry forward between sessions.
