Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is a psychotherapy in which the patient recalls a traumatic event while simultaneously undergoing bilateral stimulation that can consist of moving the eyes from side to side, vibrations or tapping movements on different sides of the body, or tones delivered through one ear, then the other, via headphones.

Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

IPT is a treatment which encourages the patient to regain control of mood and functioning, and is based on the common factors of psychotherapy: a "treatment alliance in which the therapist empathically engages the patient, helps the patient to feel understood, arouses affect, presents a clear rationale and treatment ritual, and yields success experiences.".

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

EFT proposes emotions themselves have an innately adaptive potential which, if activated, can help clients change problematic emotional states or unwanted self-experiences. Emotions are connected to our most essential needs. Clients undergoing EFT are helped to better identify, experience, explore, make sense of, transform and flexibly manage their emotional experiences.
