Uppskatta Counseling
We'll work together to prioritize your healing
Traditional therapy often focuses solely on our thoughts and emotions, but I believe our bodies play a crucial role in our healing journey.
As we embark on your unique healing journey, my approach views you as a whole person, far beyond any diagnosis. I integrate powerful modalities, including somatic therapies like EFT and EMDR, and the transformative insights of ego state parts work. Together, we'll explore how your thoughts and feelings resonate within your body and how different internal 'parts' contribute to your experience. By honoring your body's signals and understanding the intentions of these parts, we can gently unravel old patterns of protection and collaboratively build new pathways, fostering profound healing and lasting well-being.
Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to heal, reclaim your needs, and cultivate a more loving relationship with yourself.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing):
Imagine your mind like a river. Sometimes, difficult experiences create a dam, blocking the natural flow and causing distress. EMDR therapy acts like a key, gently releasing the blockage and allowing the river to flow freely again. This process helps you heal from past trauma and reclaim your emotional well-being.
​
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): At its core, EFT helps you understand and work with your emotions, recognizing them as powerful guides to your needs and motivations. It emphasizes strengthening emotional connections and processing deeper emotional experiences, often rooted in attachment patterns, to foster secure bonds both internally and in relationships
Ego state parts work therapy is a powerful approach that views the human personality not as a single, unified whole, but as being made up of various "parts" or "ego states." These parts are distinct facets of our personality, each with its own thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and memories, often formed in response to different life experiences.
For example, you might have an "inner child" part that carries past hurts, a "manager" part that keeps you organized, or a "critic" part that pushes you. In therapy, we work to identify and understand these different parts, learning their roles and their intentions (which are always positive, even if their methods are challenging). The goal is not to get rid of these parts, but to help them communicate and cooperate more effectively, resolving internal conflicts and healing any wounded or "stuck" parts.
By fostering compassion and understanding for all your parts, this therapy helps you cultivate a stronger, more integrated sense of self, leading to greater emotional balance, resilience, and overall well-being
I aim to help you not only overcome challenges, but also discover and cultivate your full potential.
Imagine a therapy that not only listens to your story but also understands the language of your body. That's what I offer. I use a holistic approach that combines traditional talk therapy with powerful somatic techniques. By honoring your body's wisdom, we can gently address the impact of past experiences and create a new sense of safety and ease within you. Together, we'll discover the tools you need to feel more present, connected, and empowered in your life.
