Associate Professional Clinical Counselor
Georgia Gintowt-Gindick
Hi! I'm Georgia, and I am passionate about supporting clients along their healing journey. Many of us are living in a state of self distrust, believing we are deeply flawed and broken. We may be at odds with ourselves, thinking that we must fix ourselves to be worthy of the life and relationships we want. With an intuitive and non-pathologizing approach, I aim to help you restore your relationship with yourself after trauma, difficult relationships, and self-disconnection.
My approach blends person-centered, psychodynamic, and feminist therapies to strengthen your self-trust, help you understand how your past affects your present, and explore how your perspective of life, spirituality, and existence itself weaves into the struggles you are facing. I also draw from parts work, narrative therapy, and other experiential modalities that bring a creative element to your healing process.
I believe healing happens when we learn to embrace our unique humanity in a world that wants to label us, pathologize us, and consistently give messages to us that we are not good enough. I would be honored to be a part of your healing journey. If you feel like we could be a good fit for your therapeutic goals, please reach out!

Therapy Services
Vanessa only provides in-person services, which include individual and groups at our Vista locations.
Couples counseling is not covered by insurance therefore is offered in the form of 90 minute Somatic Intimacy Coaching. These sessions are for couples (or relationship constellations) navigating the complexities of sexual trauma, repair, and intimacy within ethical non-monogamy or other non-traditional structures. Together, we co-create a space for communication, nervous system attunement, and embodiment practices that honor each partner’s truth, boundaries, and desires.
Vanessa-Gissele Holliman
Accepting Aetna, United Healthcare and TriCare
Specializing in the treatment of sexual assault as an adult for navigators wanting to reclaim their identity, body and sex life. I also guide those with experiences of narcissistic recovery and intimate partner violence. Outside of these lived experiences, I also support military and veterans, as I understand that system as the daughter of Marine Corps veterans.
Hi! I’m Vanessa Holliman, the founder of BEing Wholistic Collective. I believe in creating sacred, integrative spaces where healing, self-inquiry, and soul-alignment are honored. My mission is to bridge science and spirit, empowering individuals to embody posttraumatic growth, reclaim their inner wisdom, and lead lives anchored in authenticity and purpose.
My approach blends Polyvagal Theory, we honor your body’s wisdom as a guide, helping you create new pathways of connection, resilience, and trust; Jungian/Depth Psychology, we explore dreams, archetypes, and those little cosmic nudges that remind you there’s magic in your healing journey; Somatic Psychology, by integrating somatic awareness with compassionate presence, we awaken a deeper layer of healing, where release becomes ritual and embodiment becomes remembrance; and a blend of Energy Psychology.
With a foundation in trauma-informed care and a passion for integrative wellness, my work is deeply shaped by my own healing journey and the sacred responsibility of guiding others through theirs.
I hold advanced training in mind-body-soul methodologies, holistic nutrition, somatic practice, AstroPsychology, Reiki, and breath-based energy work. My approach is intuitive and grounded, weaving together science, spirit, and ancestral wisdom.
Through years of supporting survivors of trauma, I’ve learned that true transformation begins when we stop trying to “fix” ourselves, and instead remember who we were before the world told us to be small. BEing Wholistic is the space I needed during my own awakening. Now, I offer it to you.
