welcome
We offer an integrative approach to achieving psychological and emotional well-being.
We offer cutting edge, evidence based interventions in the treatment of trauma, mood disorders and other mental health concerns. We use a variety of trauma oriented models including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), Natural Processing (NP), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Integrative Body Psychotherapy (IBP) and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP).
In addition to traditionally informed approaches to psychological intervention, we also offer assessment and treatment with the added opportunity to engage modern methods of Neurotherapy technologies, including QEEG brain mapping, neurostimulation, and neurofeedback.
Neurotherapy can often be a powerful catalyst for change deep within an individual’s neural networks. When combined with psychotherapy, this treatment approach can offer lasting relief from distressing symptoms and can result in profound personal transformation.
Psychotherapy
We are trained in and offer traditional psychotherapy as well as modern modalities that integrate somatic and attachment-based approaches with the latest in neuroscientifically informed trauma processing interventions.
Assessment & QEEG Mapping
If your choice is to pursue Neurotherapy, the initial assessment includes brain mapping via quantitative electroencephalogram. This allows us to get a reading of your brain’s electrical activity and “map” what is going on in your brain.
Neurotherapy
Also known as “brain training”, neurostimulation or neuromodulation. We create a protocol to entrain your brain with the goal of regulating your nervous system and teaching your brain how to communicate with itself more effectively.
ABOUT US
We are committed to supporting clients in healing and transformation.
Our practitioners are trained in a variety of treatment modalities that are informed by our current understanding of the neurobiology of trauma and the importance of nervous system regulation. We work with underlying patterns of the human attachment system when addressing presentations of emotional and psychological distress.
While we are trained in diagnostic assessment, more and more we take a brain-based approach to understanding how behavior manifests and causes distress, and what to do about it. We rely on each individual’s innate wisdom and trustable capacity for healing as we work in collaborative partnership with you, in your quest for change and well-being.
