Welcome to Healing & Balance LLC. 

Increase your capacity, wellbeing and resilience.

My name is Christine Milovani, and I opened my practice in 2000 with the goal of integrating Eastern and Western principles to create personalized healing sessions that include the whole body.  My intention is to create a grounded space for your healing with an open heart, compassion, deep listening, authenticity, intuition and clarity.

Integrative Somatic sessions incorporate my skills from social work, psychotherapy, neuroscience, spirituality, somatic therapies, and the healing arts.

Learn techniques that can be practiced daily to support your self-healing and well-being. The goal is to empower you to heal and transform from within, while increasing coping skills and confidence in daily life.

Integrative somatic psychotherapy sessions combine traditional psychotherapy with integrative mind-body techniques that engage body-centered wisdom to support mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health. A combination of somatic therapy approaches may be used in session based on the clinical assessment of needs from your therapist and with expressed permission: body-centered psychotherapy, mindfulness, guided imagery, breath awareness, movement, tai chi, qigong, Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing. (Psychotherapy sessions are only available in Wisconsin, where Christine is licensed).

Integrative somatic healing and wellness sessions will include coaching, consultation, education, mindfulness, guided imagery, breath awareness, movement, tai chi, qigong, and Somatic Experiencing.  (These sessions are available via telehealth anywhere, and are not focused on psychotherapy, clinical assessment, diagnosis or clinical interventions).

Positive impact of integrative somatic sessions may include: increased self-awareness, improved connection to one's own body, increased self-confidence, improved social connections and relationships, reduced stress, reduced trauma responses, increased self-regulation, and increased resilience.

Collaboration: I can offer advocacy, consultation and support by collaborating with medical, mental health, and integrative professionals within your plan of care. With specialized skills in trauma recovery, I am able to serve as an adjunct health professional in coordination with your primary mental health therapist or primary care provider.

Location: Madison, Wisconsin. Offering telehealth sessions only at this time.

Fees: Payment is fee for service (no direct billing for insurance), and currently scheduling for new clients is usually within 4-6 weeks.
