Beyond Limits Psychotherapy provides a variety of evidenced-based, trauma-focused modalities to best address your needs, and help you to achieve your therapeutic goals. Below are examples of some of the primary techniques utilized in session.
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to focus briefly on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms.
Ongoing research supports positive clinical outcomes, showing EMDR therapy as a helpful treatment for disorders such as anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS is a transformative tool that conceives of every human being as a system of protective and wounded inner parts led by a core Self. We often try to bury our wounded parts with anxiety, impulsive behaviors, anger, substance use, excessive social media use, and negative thoughts.
When doing internal family systems work, we focus on identifying the different parts of yourself that are being affected by behaviors or thoughts and we work on connecting to those parts.
Using IFS with other treatments such as EMDR can be helpful to gaining further insight and developing skills that will help you feel more in control of your life.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a type of talk therapy (psychotherapy). It’s based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but it’s specially adapted for people who experience emotions very intensely.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of talk therapy that helps people understand how thoughts affect emotions and behaviors.
“Dialectical” means combining opposite ideas. DBT focuses on helping people accept the reality of their lives and their behaviors, as well as helping them learn to change their lives, including their unhelpful behaviors.
