Treatment Approaches
Sensorimotor psychotherapy is body-based talk therapy, integrating current findings from neuroscience to transform traumatic memories into strengths and resources for the client. It works with developmental trauma, such as maternal lack of attunement, as well as acute or gross trauma like sexual abuse, violence, or verbal abuse. Sensorimotor therapists work on mindfulness and collaboration with the client, repeatedly asking permission to do each experiment or process along the way.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an information processing therapy that helps clients cope with trauma, addictions, and phobias. It is designed to diminish negative feelings associated with memories of traumatic events. Unlike most forms of talk therapy, EMDR focuses less on the traumatic event itself and more on the disturbing emotions and symptoms that result from the event.
Having compassion for oneself is really no different than having compassion for others. Think about what the experience of compassion feels like. Self-compassion involves responding in the same supportive and understanding way you would with a good friend when you have a difficult time, fail, or notice something you don’t like about yourself.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness helps with clear-cut procedures for implementing techniques and simple ways to be present with our authentic selves whether you are experiencing depression, anxiety, chronic pain, or other problems. We usually start with an anchor practice such as breath, body scan or movement practices.
