Adjunct Therapy
I understand that sometimes talk therapy alone may not be enough to break through the barriers that are holding you back.
There are times when you may encounter "stuck points" that seem impossible to move past, leaving you feeling trapped in old patterns and unable to make progress. It's not uncommon to experience a conflict between your logical reasoning and your gut emotions, leading to internal arguments that keep you stuck in negative self-talk and harmful behaviors. Despite your best efforts to change, you may find yourself repeating the same patterns over and over again.
In situations like these, your primary counselor may recommend adjunct trauma approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Trauma Focused Cognitive Processing Therapy (TF-CPT), and Brainspotting (BSP) as powerful evidence-based interventions to support your healing journey. Adjunct extended sessions (90 min-4hrs) are an intense and goal-specific approach that complements your current therapy. It works in collaboration with your primary therapist to target specific memories, body sensations, or limiting beliefs that are hindering your progress.
At InnerPiece Counseling, I believe in the power of collaboration and teamwork.
I work closely with your primary therapist to clearly define your treatment goals and create a personalized plan that addresses your unique needs. By partnering with your primary therapist, I ensure that your treatment is aligned with your overall therapeutic journey and supports your progress towards healing and growth.
I am extensively trained in adjunct EMDR, ART, TF-CPT, and BSP. I am passionately dedicated to providing you with the highest level of care. I understand that each individual is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet your specific goals and challenges.

Our therapeutic relationship is solely dedicated to focused reprocessing and desensitization trauma work. Through the use of trauma-specific techniques and interventions, we aim to help clients process and integrate their traumatic experiences, leading to symptom reduction and increased resilience.

It is important to note that our therapeutic relationship is not intended to be a long-term commitment. Our focus is on providing targeted trauma support and assisting clients in achieving their trauma-related goals. Once these goals are met, clients will be encouraged to either return to their referring therapist or we can assist them in finding a long-term therapist who can provide ongoing mental health support.

We utilize several protocols of trauma-focused modalities, including EMDR (standard/advance protocols), ART, BSP, TF-CPT, and IFS techniques. These evidence-based approaches have been shown to be effective in addressing trauma-related and critical stress incident symptoms and promoting healing. Our therapists are experienced in assessing and selecting the most appropriate modality for each client's specific needs.
* Please note that my adjunct therapy services are not intended to address everyday mental health issues or provide long-term therapy for non-trauma-related concerns. I highly recommend seeking a primary mental health professional for these specific needs.
I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients as they navigate their healing journey. If you have any further questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please don't hesitate to contact me today.
