Center for Integrative Counseling and Wellness Opens in Hingham, Mass.

The Center for Integrative Counseling and Wellness today announced its grand opening in Hingham, Mass. The first of its kind health facility offers multi-disciplinary, compassionate care providers to approach health from the inception, before problems get out of hand, and tackle existing problems with a wealth of tools and knowledge.

Services range from traditional psychotherapy and psychiatry, to holistic approaches such as mindfulness meditation, yoga and nutrition counseling, all available in one convenient location. The Center combines a group of sophisticated and well-known specialists who have created a nurturing environment, and collaborate and use evidence-based best practices to provide customized, personalized treatments and trainings.

“Good physical and mental health are the foundation of everything we do in our lives. Yet, often we don’t pay attention to our physical health until we are sick, and we may ignore mental health problems because of social stigma,” said Dr. Barbara Green, Ph.D., co-founder of the Center for Integrative Counseling and Wellness. “My colleagues and I have long recognized the need for a Center like this. Using a wide array of therapeutic options and comprehensive approach builds trusting relationships with our clients, leading them to create their own healthy, wellness-based lifestyles. We’re excited to assemble a team of uniquely qualified professionals with a passion for collaborative care.”

“At the Hallowell Center, we firmly believe in the connection between physical and mental health,” said Dr. Edward Hallowell, M.D., founder of the Hallowell Centers. “We’re thrilled to be a part of the Center for Integrative Counseling and Wellness and help the South Shore community unwrap their gifts through both traditional and nontraditional counseling and wellness techniques.”

“Since its inception in 2003, Walden has endorsed a ‘Whole Health’ approach,” said Dr. Stuart Koman, Ph.D., president and CEO of Walden Psychiatric Associates. “We know that we found the right home with the Center and all of its dedicated professionals.”
