Healing that works with the whole person, not just the symptoms.

A clinical health psychologist working at the intersection of emotional and physical health.

Dr. Mariah Streeter is the founder and CEO of Embody Health Psychology and a licensed clinical health psychologist with over a decade of experience working at the intersection of emotional and physical health. Her own experience navigating chronic illness shapes how she understands what a diagnosis does to a life, and what it takes to be treated as a whole person inside a system built to treat parts.

She works integratively. Rather than applying a single method, she draws on Internal Family Systems, somatic therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and relational and depth-oriented approaches within one course of treatment, moving between them according to what a person is carrying. This allows her to address medical trauma, grief, anxiety, and identity change together instead of treating them as separate problems.

Dr. Mariah has held clinical leadership roles in integrated medical settings, where she built and scaled behavioral health teams working alongside physicians. She brought that experience to Embody, creating a specialty practice where care considers the full context of a person’s life and health. Today, she leads the practice and its growing team of clinicians.

An Integrative Approach

Integrative means you get several approaches from one clinician instead of a referral every time the work changes direction. It also means we treat the body and the mind as one system, which is what health psychology has argued for since the field existed.

Our primary modalities are Internal Family Systems, Somatic Therapy, emotion-focused therapy, relational depth work, and cognitive behavioral therapy. In practice they blend. We might use IFS to get to know the part of you that manages everything and never asks anyone for help, then slow down to notice what happens in your chest on the rare occasion that part lets go. Emotion-focused work gives the grief or anger underneath it somewhere to land. CBT takes on what practical tools your symptoms may need in a given moment. Relational depth work is where we trace when you learned that asking was not an option.

Which one leads depends on what you walk in with. Someone in a flare needs something different from someone in remission who cannot stop bracing for the next one. That is the advantage of one clinician holding all of it.

Nobody asks you to prove your symptoms are real, and nobody hands you off when the work moves from your body to your complex history.
