Mind-body therapy recognizes the deep connection between your physical experiences and emotional well-being. This approach understands that stress, trauma, and emotions manifest in the body, and that healing can happen through attending to both physical and psychological dimensions. Mind-body therapists may use techniques that integrate breath, movement, body awareness, and mindfulness.

On First Session, you can browse therapists who work with the mind-body connection and watch their intro videos to get a sense of their approach. All therapists have their credentials verified during onboarding. Whether you prefer online or in-person sessions, you can book directly or request a free consultation to find the right match.

About First Session
What is mind-body therapy?

Mind-body therapy is an approach that addresses the interconnection between psychological experiences and physical sensations. It recognizes that emotions, stress, and trauma can affect the body, and that working with the body can support emotional healing. Therapists may integrate practices like breathwork, body awareness, movement, or mindfulness into their work.

How can mind-body therapy help?

Many people find mind-body approaches helpful for managing stress, processing trauma, reducing anxiety, and addressing physical symptoms with psychological components. It can support you in becoming more attuned to your body's signals, releasing tension, and developing healthier ways of responding to stress. This approach is useful when talking alone doesn't fully address your concerns.

What happens in a mind-body session?

In mind-body sessions, your therapist may guide you in noticing physical sensations, practicing breathwork, or exploring how emotions manifest in your body. You might learn techniques to regulate your nervous system, release stored tension, or use movement to process difficult experiences. Sessions often combine conversation with experiential body-based practices.

How do I find a mind-body therapist?

On First Session, you can filter by specialty to find therapists who work with the mind-body connection. Each therapist has a profile with an intro video so you can get a sense of their approach. You can book a session directly online or request a free consultation first. All therapists on the platform have their credentials verified during onboarding.

Is mind-body therapy right for me?

Mind-body therapy may be a good fit if you're interested in approaches that integrate physical and emotional well-being. It's helpful if you experience stress physically, feel disconnected from your body, or want to complement talk therapy with body-based practices. Consider booking a consultation with a therapist to discuss whether this approach suits you.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. Browse mind-body therapists on First Session and watch their intro videos to find someone whose approach resonates with you. Once you've found a match, you can book your first session directly online. Many therapists offer a free 15-minute consultation if you'd like to connect first.
