Group therapy might seem intimidating and is not always the first approach considered for EMDR therapy. However, EMDR can be deeply effective in a group setting, offering a crucial element in healing: connection.
Trauma often occurs within relationships and impacts how we perceive ourselves, others, and our place in the world. Therefore, healing is most profoundly achieved within relational and collective contexts.
In a group therapy setting, EMDR facilitates not just individual healing but also collective support. The group itself becomes a spiritual and emotional resource, creating a shared space where participants can experience mutual understanding and connection. This collective healing environment allows individuals to find solace and insight through the experiences and support of others, fostering a sense of community and spiritual unity.
Many clients discover that group therapy, once experienced, becomes a preferred treatment option due to its unique ability to address both personal and collective dimensions of healing. I encourage clients to explore group therapy as part of their journey, embracing the power of collective wisdom and spiritual connection in their therapeutic process.
EMDR Circle: Healing Through Connection
Clients often describe their experiences in the circle as magical. The circle, symbolizing wholeness, fosters healing connections and attunement, which are crucial for trauma clients. Integrating EMDR with this powerful dynamic transforms the healing process. By addressing shame and rejection within the circle’s message of wholeness, EMDR becomes even more effective.
Every other Friday from 1-2:30 PM (resuming Sept 2024).
Foundation Circle: Preparing for EMDR Success
This experience focuses on skill-building and preparation, laying a solid foundation for effective trauma treatment. Through targeted exercises and collaborative support, participants develop essential skills and strategies that enhance their readiness for EMDR therapy. By establishing a strong groundwork, the Foundation Circle helps ensure that individuals are well-prepared to engage deeply and effectively in their trauma healing journey.
Soul Circle: A Journey of Connection and Healing (KAP+EMDR)
This experience offers a comprehensive healing journey that begins with three preparatory sessions combining EMDR therapy in a circle, designed to build a strong foundation and prepare participants for the deep work ahead. These sessions help clients develop essential skills, establish a safe and supportive environment, and foster connections with themselves and others. Following this preparation, participants undergo three ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) sessions, where ketamine is used to facilitate deep emotional exploration and neuroplasticity. The journey concludes with three integration sessions, again utilizing EMDR in a circle, to help participants process and solidify their experiences, integrate insights gained, and connect the therapeutic work with their everyday lives. This structured approach ensures a holistic and supportive path towards profound healing, insight, and transformation.
Personally Designed Group Experience
Heal with a group of your own making. I will create a tailored experience specifically designed to meet the unique needs of your group. Healing is often most impactful when done in community, where the collective energy can enhance the therapeutic process.
Whether your group consists of 4 or 40 participants, and whether you are at work, on retreat, or within your community, I will facilitate a transformative experience that harnesses the power of group dynamics to support collective healing and growth.
