Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a heightened state of focus, where the conscious mind is in a relaxed state (trance) while the subconscious mind is open to suggestions. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis you can concentrate intensely while blocking out distractions. It is not mind control or sleep because you are always in control. All your senses are awake, and alert and you are aware of everything that is being said. It is very different from what you may have seen on a stage show. That kind of hypnosis is for entertainment and is different than therapeutic hypnosis, that is done as a way of creating positive change.
Art Therapy
Without pressures of the outside world art can allow you to develop new expressive possibilities which may be blocked in the subconscious. The use of art can assist with relaxation and shape new ways of looking at your thoughts and feelings into a visual piece. Many people find their voice and express it with art. This is great therapy approach for anyone who wants to express themselves and has difficulty or anyone intrigued by art and is experiencing stress.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
This type of therapy focuses on challenging negative thoughts and behaviours so that the emotions are more easily regulated. The philosophy is that thoughts, behaviours and feelings are connected.
Traumatology
This therapy is for working with people who have been through a trauma. Much of the treatment can include prolonged exposure therapy. Prolonged Exposure is an approach that teaches people how to cope with their traumatic feelings and memories with their imagination and/ or by confrontation of feared objects activities or situations in a safe manner.
Strength Based Therapy
This type of therapy emphasis personal strengths and is about empowerment. The philosophy is that people are resilient and resourceful.
Mindfulness Practitioner
This approach is about being mindful and present with where you are at in life. Most people are not aware of the part they play in life and mindfulness therapy brings that forward. I have my Levels 1, 2, 3 and Master’s level of training in Mindfulness.
Narrative Therapy
This therapy separates the person from their problem. It gives them distance from their problem or situation so that they can see the situation more clearly. This approach encourages and empowers people to rely on their own skills by sharing stories, reflecting on stories and rewriting their life story.
Solution Focused Therapy
This approach is empowering you to own ability to solve problems rather then looking at how those problems came to be. It is a goal focused approach.
EMDR
EMDR is a structured therapy using eye movement or self-tapping to reprocess traumatic or difficult memories. It can be effective for a variety of concerns including PTSD, anxiety, depression, phobias and addictive behaviors. EMDR promotes healing of distressing experiences, negative beliefs and formation of new, adaptive thought patterns. A preparation period is required to determine if a client may be suitable for EMDR treatment.
Couples Gottman Therapy
