Body Work for Trauma

Somatic Experiencing is a body based psychotherapy that focuses on trying to work with the survival responses that the body may be stuck in. This may be because of earlier traumatic situations that the person may have gone through. Much of our responses to traumatic situations do not involve the complex aspects of our brain like the language processing center, abstraction and reasoning center. This leads the trauma to stay in the body and until the memory gets integrated, the same sense gets reenacted in our relationships and work.

Group Psychotherapy

Through group therapy we try to look at relational problems, power structures and build supportive relationships with a focus on attachment and belonging. The members of the group get the opportunity to give and receive support much like relationships in real life thus making it an effective way to transfer the sense of belonging felt in the group to relationships outside as well. This type of therapy is effective for most people but would especially benefit individuals with personality difficulties and complex trauma

Individual Psychotherapy

In Individual psychotherapy, the vehicle for change is the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and client. The work is usually long term and looks into understanding the client's issues as well as providing a safe space for them to reflect on the difficult emotions and painful memories as they come up.

Workshops and Trainings

We also conduct trainings for young psychotherapists on different aspects of psychotherapy like the use of the body in psychotherapy, relational and psychodynamic therapy and concepts in group analysis. We are also open to collaborating with different types of organizations to deliver mental health programs suitable to their needs. This may include conducting support groups, themed workshops, individual psychotherapy etc.

Group Supervision

We also provide group supervision to psychotherapists. Supervision is an important aspect of growth for psychotherapists and helps to maintain the quality and ethics of their practice. Supervision will help to learn concepts of psychotherapy experientially and help reflect and think about clients outside of the therapy room. It also helps to build a good network of peers that one can reach out for referrals or simply for support
