Research has demonstrated that psychedelic psychotherapy is a breakthrough treatment for addiction, depression, trauma, anxiety and for the betterment of well people. Psychedelic psychotherapy integrates insights from modern consciousness research, anthropology, various depth psychologies, transpersonal psychology, Eastern spiritual practices, and other mystical traditions of the world. In the words of Dr. Stanislav Grof: “Psychedelics, used responsibly and with proper caution, would be for psychiatry what the microscope is for biology or the telescope is for astronomy.”

The strengths and sorrows we are carrying through life are opportunities for growth, but it is difficult to make use of them when they feel overwhelming. Each of us have all the necessary ingredients for healing within ourselves, but we need the right circumstances to discover our Inner Healing Wisdom. Just as the body initiates a sophisticated healing process to spontaneously move toward physical healing, the psyche also exhibits an innate healing intelligence and capacity. Psychedelic medicines work synergistically with psychotherapy to remove blocks to your progress and empower you to create deep and lasting change.

EMDR is is an integrative psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma, panic attacks, grief, depression, disturbing memories/ life events, phobias, stress, addictions, and sexual and/or physical abuse. The World Health Organization recommends that people suffering from the above issues be referred for treatments using EMDR, citing it as being 90% effective.

EMDR can be appropriate for adults and children of any age. People usually pursue EMDR as a therapeutic approach because they feel stuck, and other treatment modalities have not lessened their distress.

The goal of EMDR therapy is to process earlier unresolved emotions, beliefs, and body sensations; to leave you with a new, more realistic understanding and perspectives that will lead to less distress and healthier behaviours.

Once the processing phase of EMDR begins, you relive traumatic or triggering experiences in brief doses while the therapist directs eye movements or rhythmic tapping/ auditory signals. Over time, this technique is shown to lessen the impact that the memories have on you.

Authentic Tantra® and sexual therapy work with the nervous system to rewire the brain and body to overcome these issues.
