Embodiment: the representation or expression of something in a tangible or visible form.
Most therapists haven’t been in consistent therapy before becoming a therapist themselves.
The difference in this work of becoming a Holistic Therapist is being embodied, and feeling the impact of holistic healing.
Facilitation for your clients will come from an embodied understanding through an experiential learning environment.
I'm a big believer that you can only take your clients as far as you have gone. In the Holistic Therapist Academy, you will experience the healing power of this work for yourself.
Clerissa, LPC, NCC, CCH, CDBT
LeNaya has done a great job incorporating holistic practices into a mental health framework that feels fluid, seamless, and accessible. One of the best aspects of the program is the experiential components that help you not only learn the information intellectually but also help you experience the healing power of these holistic practices first hand.

Martina, Life Coach
Participating in THTA was life changing for me both personally and professionally. I wanted to offer non-invasive, accessible services to my patients and clients but didn't want to keep pursuing certification after certification. THTA was the perfect fit because it offers multiple certifications in one program! A one-stop shop for an entry-level holistic healer or an experienced therapist who is looking to add to their toolbox. The practices I learned in LeNaya's program can be easily implemented in a variety of settings. I'm so grateful I learned about THTA when I did, It was such a healing experience for me, and I can't wait to share what I learned with the people I serve.

Rikki, LCSW
The Holistic Academy has opened me up to feel confident in my ability to stand as a Holistic Therapist. Before I would integrate in the best way I knew how, but with this course I feel confident integrating holistic wellness techniques in the therapy room.
Annelle, Nurse Practitioner
The Holistic Therapist Academy changed my life. Not only did this program give me a (list!!) of certifications to support my ability to bring this work into the medical system, but LeNaya showed us how to ethically bring this work into practice. I know that the target audience is therapist but if you are any sort of provider or practitioner who serves people in the medical system or within the healing practices, this program will support you to bring it all into practice ethically for yourself and for those you serve. And!!! The courses teach you deep knowledge of the why athese practices work and what’s happening on a physiological and psychological level. It’s expanded my understanding, informed my work and changed my own brain! Do this program! You can thank me later!
