Ecothearpy
Ecotherapy is offered by Dr. Spiegelhoff in the summer and fall.
Let nature serve as your co-therapist. Ecotherapy, a nature-based treatment, is a great way to boost mental and physical health. Research has found that spending time in nature helps decrease anger, increase positive emotions, reduce stress, display fewer symptoms of ADHD, reduce depressive symptoms, and reduce anxiety.
For clients interested, nature walks are now available in place of sessions at the office. These sessions consist of walks along the Camillus Erie Canal Park. Clients may also request meditation, including guided mindful forest walks and insight meditation. These sessions are less formal and more relaxed than in-office sessions since we are in a public setting.
Ecotherapy sessions are limited and only available at the end of the workday, so please schedule in advance. All sessions are dependent on the weather. If a session cannot take place due to inclement weather, we will meet at the office.
Integrative Health Assessment and Consultation
Separate from mental health counseling, Dr. Spiegelhoff offers a 3-hour comprehensive integrative health assessment and consultation. Clients will complete some assessments before meeting. The consultation will consist of a 1-hour assessment review prior to the meeting and a 2-hour meeting. In the consultation, Dr. Spiegelhoff will assess your physical and mental health history, and provide psychoeducation about integrative health care (e.g., nutrition and supplementation, sleep, physical activity, and complementary medicine). You will develop an initial treatment plan and receive recommendations for future treatment. Clients may continue to receive consultation through 1-hour consultation appointments or transition to integrative mental health counseling.
Please note that these sessions are not covered by out-of-network insurance.
Integrative Health Assessments may be included in on-going counseling services. If you are only interested in integrative health assessment & consultation, please be advised that there is limited availability for these appointments.
Corporate Wellness Consultation & Counseling for Executives and Professionals
Dr. Spiegelhoff provides on-site wellness assessment and consultation to professionals at their office. This is an excellent option for high performing, busy professionals, who may not have the time to leave their office during the work day.
The initial appointment will consist reviewing and assessing the client’s needs, an initial treatment plan, and treatment recommendations. Follow-up sessions can be scheduled.
Speaking Engagements and Educational Instruction
Dr. Spiegelhoff offers speaking engagements and educational instruction on holistic wellness, women’s wellness, work-life wellness, college admission preparation, and other mental health topics. Such speaking engagements may be of interest to school districts, human resource departments, and business leaders.
