Therapy.
Talk therapy is a great place to get acquainted with our true selves and develop a deeper understanding of our emotions. Therapy is client focused and tailored to meet individual needs and goals. In person and virtual sessions are available.
Trauma Informed Yoga.
Incorporating yoga into therapy allows us to explore and process the emotions and sensations that are present in the body. Yoga has been shown through research to benefit trauma survivors in their recovery as it increases the ability to self-regulate, improve overall body awareness, and increase a sense of control/mastery over one’s body and well-being. Yoga includes mindful and conscious movement, breathwork, and meditation. Individual and group yoga sessions are available.
EMDR.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a structured therapy that encourages the client to focus briefly on a traumatic or painful memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (tapping right and left, eye movements, etc), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories. EMDR therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms. Ongoing research supports positive clinical outcomes, showing EMDR therapy as a helpful treatment for disorders such as anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences. - emdria.org
Sand Play Therapy.
Through the use of symbolic figures, a person is able to create in the sand tray stories which examine their wounds, the effects from those wounds, and the possibilities for resolution. The practitioner is then able to help a person to connect insights to feelings and begin the journey toward healing. Through Sand Play, the adult client is able to build the skills necessary to avoid the problematic patterns of the past. Children’s thoughts and feelings are given a voice through symbolic play, enabling them to resolve their issues in a language they understand.
