BEYOND TALK THERAPY: You Don’t Have to Talk About “It” to Heal “It!”
Talk therapy absolutely can be beneficial and uses our higher thinking brains. Yet as some point, talk therapy is limited because it is not able to access the lower parts of the brain where we hold stress and trauma responses. Talk therapy alone is often not enough to heal human issues.
In my practice, I offer three types of intervention that are able to access the lower brainstem and middle emotional brain to metabolize stressor and trauma responses: 1) Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), 2) Brainspotting, and 3) free-form dance movement.
