​
4. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR):
This is a powerful treatment for people with acute anxiety, depression, trauma, and post traumatic stress disorder. Our clients have reported that at the end of EMDR sessions, disturbing memories become neutral, and they can move on and live a life that is light and free! 


5. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP):
We all experience trauma at some point in our lives. Trauma disrupts the normal functioning of the nervous system and a dysregulated nervous system does not always return to baseline when the traumatic event is over. The trauma is then essentially stored in the body and can be re-experienced, causing a range of somatic symptoms (bodily sensations) Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP) developed as an approach to treat these unprocessed traumas and the resulting symptoms.
 
Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a body-inclusive approach. It promotes the notion that underneath the conscious verbal story of the trauma lies a somatic narrative full of information that can lead to healing. Sensorimotor psychotherapy harnesses the innate wisdom of the body by exploring and identifying the somatic impact of past traumatic experiences, as well as learning to track bodily and emotional responses when triggered.
