Services
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy helps clients process traumatic memories through bilateral stimulation. This evidence-based approach effectively treats PTSD, anxiety, and phobias by reprocessing stuck emotional memories. Clients experience reduced emotional distress while maintaining connection to present safety, with sessions available in standard and intensive formats.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Combines sublingual ketamine administration with guided psychotherapy to treat depression and trauma. The dissociative medicine facilitates access to subconscious material while therapists provide integration support. Sessions include preparation, journey, and integration phases with optional sound healing accompaniment for enhanced therapeutic effects.
Past Life Regression
Hypnotherapy-guided exploration of perceived past life experiences to address current emotional patterns. Clients access historical memories through trance states to understand karmic connections and recurring life themes. The process includes preparation, regression, and integration phases with recorded session documentation for continued reflection.
Sound Healing
Uses crystal singing bowls, drums, and chimes to promote nervous system regulation. Sound frequencies create resonance that facilitates emotional release and mental clarity. Integrated with other therapies to enhance processing and provide grounding between intensive treatment sessions.
Sandplay Therapy
Non-verbal therapeutic process using miniature figures and sand trays to externalize internal experiences. Clients construct scenes representing their inner world to access subconscious material and facilitate emotional healing through symbolic representation and guided exploration.
