It’s no secret that the landscape of mental health is evolving. More people are seeking holistic, integrative approaches that honor both the science and the spirit within us. On All Things Therapy, I love to dive into conversations with experts, authors, thought leaders, and practitioners who bring powerful healing tools to the table—tools like Psychoastrology®, Reiki, and mindset work. These aren’t just “buzzwords”; they’re practices that can create real, meaningful shifts in how we live and heal.
Let’s break down how these modalities come together not just in the podcast, but as resources you can tap into for your own healing.
Why Integrative Healing Matters
Integrative healing is about recognizing that you’re more than just a body and a brain. Your thoughts, your energy, your beliefs—they all interact in ways you feel every day, even if you’re not consciously aware of it. By bringing together evidence-based therapy and modalities like Psychoastrology® and Reiki, we can get at the roots of patterns that might be keeping you stuck.
On All Things Therapy, episodes often weave these threads together, exploring how different approaches can create transformation, foster resilience, and offer new perspectives on stress, relationships, trauma, and personal growth.
What Is Psychoastrology®?
Psychoastrology® is a fusion of astrology and psychology, and it’s not about reading your daily horoscope. It’s about using astrological insights—especially the placement of Chiron (the “wounded healer” asteroid)—as a powerful tool for self-understanding and therapeutic healing.
Psychoastrology® guides us in identifying our core wounds, those repeating patterns and emotional pain points that seem to show up everywhere. Instead of fighting with these wounds, we explore them with compassion. This process blends astrology’s language of the stars with the practical, grounded principles of psychotherapy.
How We Explore Psychoastrology® on the Podcast
On several episodes, we dive deep into:
- How your Chiron placement influences core beliefs and relational patterns
- Using your birth chart to spot recurring life themes
- Practical exercises for turning “wounds” into sources of meaning and healing
- Real stories of people using Psychoastrology® to unlock change

Reiki: Energy Healing for Modern Life
If you’ve ever walked into a room and felt the vibe, you already know that energy is real. Reiki is a Japanese form of energy healing that’s gentle, non-invasive, and increasingly popular for stress relief, emotional clarity, and even physical healing.
Reiki practitioners channel universal life energy through their hands—either in-person or virtually—to the recipient. Clients often report feeling calmer, clearer, and more balanced after a session. Some notice a reduction in pain or tension, others feel lighter in mood and mindset.
Reiki in Therapy: What’s the Connection?
On All Things Therapy, we talk about how Reiki can complement traditional therapy by supporting:
- Emotional release
- Deep relaxation and nervous system reset
- An increased sense of wellbeing
- Breaking free from patterns tied to old energy
Whether you’re brand new to Reiki or already a devotee, integrating it into your healing journey can amplify the results you get from talk therapy, mindfulness, or other modalities.
Mindset: Your Brain’s GPS for Change
If Psychoastrology® and Reiki are about understanding and shifting the deeper currents, mindset work is about steering the ship. Our beliefs, self-talk, and mental habits shape every area of our lives—often more than circumstance or talent.
The best part? Mindset is changeable. On the podcast, I chat with experts across neuroscience, personal development, and mental health who share tips, stories, and science-backed tools for mindset shifts. Some episode highlights include:
- How to identify limiting beliefs and reframe them
- Everyday self-compassion practices to create emotional safety
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) techniques
- The power of gratitude, visualization, and affirmations

Integration: When Tools Work Together
What’s most exciting isn’t just learning about one healing modality—it’s seeing how they amplify each other in practice. For example:
- Using insights from your Chiron in Psychoastrology® to set powerful intentions for Reiki sessions
- Addressing stubborn patterns in therapy, then using mindset work to practice new thoughts and behaviors
- Noticing when you feel “off” energetically, and supporting nervous system healing through both Reiki and cognitive techniques
On the podcast, you’ll hear guests telling their stories—how they combined talk therapy, energy healing, and spiritual insight to break through old blocks. When we integrate these tools, healing is more than symptom relief. It’s transformation.

Holistic Healing: What Does the Science Say?
While modalities like Reiki were once considered “woo,” research is catching up. Studies show energy healing can lower stress, decrease anxiety, and increase quality of life for many clients. Mindset work—especially CBT and mindfulness—is a gold standard in therapy outcomes. Even astrology, when used intentionally, can support self-reflection and meaning-making, which are fundamental to healing.
Integrative therapy recognizes that healing is personal—not one-size-fits-all. The best approach is the one that resonates with you and supports your unique journey.
