Modalities

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is a neurobiological approach that facilitates the integration of traumatic experiences, including injuries and memories that no longer serve a purpose, and leads to symptom reduction (e.g., performance anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, etc.). EMDR is based on the Adaptive Information Processing model (AIP) that utilizes bilateral stimulation to create new neural pathways and access the information stuck in the brain’s neural networks, frozen in time and unable to integrate. Following EMDR treatment, you may notice an improvement in your mental flexibility and an increase in your ability to recover from setbacks.

Brainspotting

“Where you look affects how you feel”~ Dr. David Grand

Brainspotting is a technique that utilizes the visual field to locate the parts of the brain where the information is stored. Biolateral music facilitates the left-right brain activation and connection allowing the unintegrated experiences to get processed and stored adaptively.

Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)

The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a therapeutic listening intervention designed to enhance social engagement and self-regulation by improving nervous system function. Rooted in Polyvagal Theory, the SSP works by engaging the vagus nerve, which plays a central role in regulating stress, emotional responses, and overall body function. The protocol uses specially filtered music to stimulate the auditory system, helping individuals feel calmer, more connected, and better able to manage sensory overload and stress.

The SSP targets the vagus nerve’s role in promoting a calm and balanced state. By listening to the music through headphones in a structured, gradual process, individuals can increase their ability to tolerate distress and engage with the world around them in a safe, social way.

Ideal for individuals experiencing anxiety, trauma, sensory processing challenges, or difficulties with emotional regulation, the Safe and Sound Protocol helps to build a foundation for better emotional and physiological resilience.

Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP)

The Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP) is a sound-based therapeutic listening program designed to promote deep relaxation, recovery, and emotional balance. Using advanced auditory technology, the protocol integrates natural rhythms, like heart rate and breathing, into carefully crafted music to help regulate the nervous system. This program is a valuable tool for athletes looking to boost both physical and mental recovery. Additionally, RRP supports clients facing chronic stress, trauma, or mental health challenges. Studies have shown significant improvements in areas such as anxiety, sleep, trauma symptoms, and overall emotional well-being, with many participants also reporting improvements in digestive health.

The Flash Technique

The Flash Technique is a memory reconsolidation approach that reduces the disturbance of highly distressing memories. This method does not require patients to consciously engage with the disturbing memory; instead, they are guided by the therapist to focus on a calm place called “the container” that is developed prior to the processing. This is a relatively short method that takes up to 20 minutes and reduces the level of activation to a manageable level, at which point it will be determined if additional processing using EMDR and or Brainspotting will be necessary.

HeartMath is a research-based system of tools and techniques to enhance mental and emotional self-regulation and improve Heart Rate Variability. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is a key indicator of health and fitness, influenced by emotions. HeartMath's emotional self-regulation techniques focus on increasing HRV coherence, which, when achieved, can reduce the adverse effects of stress, enhance self-regulation, cognitive function, and promote sustained physiological and behavioral change.

HeartMath has been tested in various settings worldwide, including healthcare, education, corporate, and sports.
