EMDR

Transform Trauma with EMDR At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, we’re committed to guiding you through the complexities of trauma and emotional distress. One of the evidence-based therapies we offer is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful approach to overcoming trauma and fostering psychological healing.

What is EMDR? EMDR is a structured therapy that facilitates the reprocessing of traumatic memories. Unlike traditional therapies that rely primarily on talk, EMDR involves a unique process where the therapist guides you through specific eye movements while you recall distressing events. This helps your brain to process and integrate these memories, reducing their emotional charge.

How EMDR Works:

  1. Assessment and Preparation: Your therapist will help you identify traumatic memories that need processing, while ensuring you have coping strategies in place to handle distressing emotions.
  2. Bilateral Stimulation: Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation (like tapping or sounds), EMDR helps activate your brain’s natural healing processes, allowing you to reprocess traumatic memories in a safe and controlled manner.
  3. Integration: As the memories are reprocessed, the associated emotional distress diminishes, leading to healthier beliefs and a renewed sense of well-being.

Why Choose EMDR?

  • Rapid Trauma Resolution: EMDR is known for its ability to produce rapid and lasting relief from trauma-related symptoms.
  • Reduced Emotional Distress: By addressing the root cause of trauma, EMDR helps in significantly reducing anxiety, depression, and PTSD symptoms.
  • Empowered Healing: EMDR promotes self-healing by helping your brain reprocess traumatic memories in a way that leads to emotional and psychological balance.

The Role of Your Therapist: At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, our skilled EMDR therapists create a safe, supportive environment essential for effective treatment. They guide you through each phase of EMDR with compassion and care, ensuring you feel empowered throughout your healing journey.

KAP (Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy)

Unlock New Healing Pathways with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, we are devoted to exploring innovative and effective approaches to mental health treatment. One such approach is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), a groundbreaking therapy that offers new hope for those struggling with treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and other mental health challenges.

What is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy? KAP combines the therapeutic benefits of ketamine, a fast-acting anesthetic with profound psychological effects, with traditional psychotherapy. This combination can catalyze deep emotional processing, helping to break through entrenched patterns of depression, anxiety, and trauma.

How Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Works:

  1. Preparation: Your therapist will work with you to set clear intentions for your KAP sessions, creating a safe and supportive environment for your journey.
  2. Ketamine Administration: Under the guidance of a licensed medical professional, a controlled dose of ketamine is administered. As the ketamine takes effect, it induces a state of altered consciousness that allows for enhanced introspection and emotional processing.
  3. Therapeutic Processing: During the session, your therapist helps you explore and process the thoughts, feelings, and insights that arise. The altered state of consciousness can lead to breakthroughs that are difficult to achieve in traditional talk therapy.
  4. Integration: After the ketamine session, you’ll work with your therapist to integrate the experiences and insights gained, fostering lasting psychological and emotional growth.

Why Choose Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy?

  • Effective for Treatment-Resistant Conditions: KAP has shown promise in helping individuals who have not found relief through traditional therapies or medications.
  • Deep Emotional Processing: The altered state induced by ketamine can help you access and process deep-seated emotions and trauma.
  • Rapid Relief: Many individuals experience a rapid reduction in symptoms after just a few sessions, offering hope for those in acute distress.

The Role of Your Therapist: Our team at Good Company Counseling and Coaching is dedicated to providing compassionate and expert care throughout your KAP journey. We ensure that you feel safe, supported, and empowered as you explore new pathways to healing.

Brainspotting

At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, we’re dedicated to helping you find a path to emotional and psychological well-being. One of the innovative therapies we offer is Brainspotting (BSP), a powerful tool for addressing trauma and emotional distress.

What is Trauma?

Trauma occurs when survival responses get stuck or frozen in the body. This can happen due to overwhelming experiences, whether from too much stress, too rapid changes, or insufficient support. When the nervous system can’t properly process this survival energy, it can lead to a range of issues such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, chronic pain, and a disconnection from oneself.

In today’s fast-paced world, societal pressures, stigma, and cultural narratives often discourage emotional expression and support, making it challenging for individuals to process and discharge trauma. Creating a safe space with the help of a compassionate therapist can be key to overcoming these challenges.

How Brainspotting Works:

Brainspotting is a somatic-based therapy that uses a bottom-up approach to healing by focusing on how your body feels and reacts. Unlike traditional talk therapies that engage the neocortex (the brain’s rational and logical center), Brainspotting targets the midbrain, where emotions and trauma are processed. This allows for a deeper, more direct access to emotional and physiological experiences.

Here’s how Brainspotting works:

  1. Finding Brainspots: Your therapist will help you identify specific eye positions that correspond to areas of emotional or traumatic significance in the brain.
  2. Processing: By focusing on these Brainspots, your brain activates its natural self-healing processes, allowing you to access and release the trapped emotional and physiological material.
  3. Integration: The therapy supports you through emotional and physical sensations, helping integrate these experiences into a renewed sense of well-being.

Why Choose Brainspotting?

  • Direct Access to Trauma: BSP enables you to connect directly with the root of your trauma, often leading to quicker and more profound healing.
  • Enhanced Emotional Regulation: By addressing trauma at its core, BSP helps improve emotional stability and resilience.
  • Holistic Healing: BSP promotes emotional and physiological balance, contributing to overall wellness.

The Role of Your Therapist:

The skilled professionals at Good Company Counseling and Coaching provide a safe, supportive environment crucial for effective Brainspotting. They offer relational attunement and guidance, helping you navigate the therapeutic process and achieve a greater sense of healing and balance.

One of the most widely practiced therapies we offer is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a highly effective approach for addressing a range of mental health issues by changing unhelpful thought patterns.

What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy? CBT is a structured, goal-oriented therapy that focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)

Enhance Your Emotional Resilience with the Safe and Sound Protocol At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, we are dedicated to providing innovative and effective therapies to support your emotional and psychological well-being. One such therapy is the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a non-invasive, evidence-based treatment designed to help regulate the nervous system and enhance your ability to connect, engage, and thrive.

What is the Safe and Sound Protocol? The Safe and Sound Protocol is a listening-based therapy developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, rooted in his Polyvagal Theory. SSP uses specially filtered music to stimulate and regulate the vagus nerve, which plays a crucial role in controlling the body’s stress responses. This therapy is particularly effective for individuals struggling with anxiety, trauma, autism, and sensory processing disorders.

How the Safe and Sound Protocol Works:

  1. Listening Sessions: SSP involves listening to specifically designed music through headphones. The music is modulated to activate the vagus nerve, which helps shift your nervous system into a state of safety and calm.
  2. Nervous System Regulation: As you listen to the music, SSP promotes a state of relaxation and safety, making it easier to connect with others and process emotions. Over time, this helps reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.
  3. Gradual Integration: The protocol is usually administered in a series of sessions over a few weeks, allowing your nervous system to gradually adapt and integrate the benefits of the therapy into your daily life.

Why Choose the Safe and Sound Protocol?

  • Non-Invasive and Gentle: SSP is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that can be easily integrated into your routine, making it suitable for individuals of all ages, including children.
  • Improved Emotional Regulation: By calming the nervous system, SSP helps reduce symptoms of anxiety, trauma, and sensory overload, leading to greater emotional stability and resilience.
  • Enhanced Social Engagement: SSP promotes a state of safety that enhances your ability to connect with others, improving relationships and social interactions.

The Role of Your Therapist: At Good Company Counseling and Coaching, our therapists are trained to administer the Safe and Sound Protocol in a safe, supportive environment. They guide you through the process, ensuring you feel comfortable and supported as you experience the benefits of SSP.

Interested in the Safe and Sound Protocol? If you’re curious about how SSP can help you achieve emotional balance and enhance your well-being, please reach out to us. We’re here to support you every step of the way on your journey to improved mental health.
