Holden Dillman

Holden (he/him/they/them) is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Yoga Teacher (CYT-200). Before joining Bridge Counseling and Wellness, Holden primarily served children, adolescents, and adults healing from torture, trauma, and sexual-based violence. Holden holds an MS in Social Work from the Kent School of Social Work at the University of Louisville and a BA in Sustainable Community Development from Berea College. Holden’s approach to this work is grounded in trauma-sensitive mindfulness, body-centered healing, and neuropsychology. Our bodies are designed with default neural processes in order to react to change, and just like anything, issues can arise along the way. Issues such as difficulty establishing boundaries, inability to regulate emotions such as fear or anxiety, or even an inability to feel safe when speaking your truth. Together, we will evaluate and gain a deeper understanding of your relationship to change, and how that affects the way in which you navigate life. With an academic background rooted in understanding how human behavior is affected by various environments and systems, Holden is committed to supporting others as they tend to their relationship with themselves, others around them, and their environment. Our collective goal is to cultivate a deeper sense of wholeness and awareness of self to embody lightness as we move throughout life and our work together. How this happens is 100% client-centered and based on the emotional stage of the individual. Holden’s greatest joy is to have the opportunity to support those who chose to heal and re-embody their physical, emotional, and mental self. In order to meet you wherever you’re at, Holden often takes a mixed-methods approach that is always evidence-based. Holden provides LGBTQIA+ friendly services and welcomes all individuals.
