Group Therapy

Safe Exchange of Differing Viewpoints

Joining a group of strangers may sound intimidating at first, but group therapy provides benefits that individual therapy may not. Counselors say, in fact,... Read The Rest

Trauma Therapy

Powerful Therapy for Healing Trauma and Emotional Stress

Any event that has had a lasting negative effect on the self or psyche is by its very nature “traumatic”. Events that happen to us when we are in our younger years and throughout our life shape and mold us, for better or worse. Some of us can chose to use those situations as life lessons and move on, never letting it affect us again. Others may not be able to do that. It just stays with you, tucked away until it is triggered, affecting you over and over again; sometimes even years apart. We can’t seem to escape it; no... Read The Rest

EMDR with Ketamine

The Role of Ketamine in EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy is an evidence-backed treatment used to help people heal from experiences that have caused trauma. Through guided eye movements, EMDR allows individuals to reprocess and integrate traumatic memories, reducing their psychological impact. This process helps transform distressing memories and thoughts into more adaptive and positive beliefs. Ketamine, traditionally used as an anesthetic, has emerged as a promising treatment for depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

This combination allows deeper access to traumatic memories and facilitates more profound healing. Who Can... Read The Rest
