Approaches to Wellness
Humanistic and Mindfulness Approaches
Humanistic therapy works on the goal of living your most fulfilling life, largely by enabling you to be your true self. You’ll spend time exploring ways to grow and increase self-acceptance along with discussing the issues you’re dealing with.
Another important principle in humanistic therapy is unconditional positive regard. It can be useful for addressing:
- self-esteem issues
- difficulty coping with chronic health concerns
- effects of trauma
- depression
- relationship issues
- substance use disorder
- feelings of worthlessness .
The Biopsychosocial (BPS) Model
The BPS model states that relative health and disease is dependent on the interactions between these three factors. Their interplay thus determines the cause, manifestation and resolution of illness. For example, insults to the bodily health of a patient may be exacerbated by problems in their mental or social spheres of health. Illness may manifest in more extreme or chronic symptoms; it could be harder to treat effectively without addressing the issues outside of bodily health. By moving beyond the biomedical perspective of patient health, the BPS model recognizes the complex dynamic between biological, psychological and social life circumstances, providing a more holistic view to address health problems.
