Methods







            


What kinds of methods do I work with?

 

Cognitive therapy -- Learning to change how you feel by being aware of and changing your automatic reactions, thoughts, and assumptions about yourself, others, and your world. (more info)
 

EMDR -- (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) - Rapidly clearing effects of large and small traumatic events and stresses, reducing present anxieties and limitations. Enhancing personal power and potential. (more info)
 

Hakomi Mindfulness / Body centered therapy  -- using mindful, present awareness to help you be aware (in real time) of your feelings, needs, impulses, where you hurt, what you really want, and which parts of you are holding you back. (more info on Hakomi)
 

Emotion Focused Couples Therapy – helping couples to get past the cycles of negative interaction, and address the core emotions that can prevent – and build – true intimacy. (more info)
 

Relaxation training -- practicing a deep mental and physical letting to rebuild your energy, finding the calm centre to carry with you through your daily events.
 

Biofeedback -- learning to "run" your body's stress or relaxation responses using computer feedback from sensors that show you clearly and immediately how you are responding. (more info)
 

"Je ne sais quoi"  -- There is something else that takes place when therapy is happening, when two people meet and join forces to discover the keys of life together.
 

Risk

And then the day came,
when the risk
to remain tight
in a bud
was more painful
than the risk
it took
to Blossom.
