Trauma Informed Evidence-Based Somatic Psychological Therapy
Therapeutic Modalities
EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing is a form of trauma informed therapy that helps individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences using bilateral stimulation.
AF-EMDR - Attachment-Focused EMDR enhances this approach by effectively addressing attachment issues caused by traumatic events that occurred in childhood.
EST - Ego State Therapy (Parts) is another evidence-based psychodynamic therapy which explores resourceful, traumatised, and conflicted parts of the self. This method teaches how to access and resolve parts of the self that developed in response to traumatic events or difficult life experiences.
EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) is a somatic psychological therapy that combines tapping on specific acupressure points with emotional processing to alleviate distress.
CBT - Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is widely recognised as an effective evidence-based therapy for addressing various mental health issues through cognitive restructuring and behaviour modification.
MI - Motivational Interviewing is a client centred approach that enhances motivation for change, often used within trauma informed therapy frameworks.
Somatic Regulation Techniques are integral to many therapeutic practices, including physiological emotion regulation and relaxation techniques, which help individuals stay present and effectively manage their emotions.
Functional Behavioural Analysis (FBA) is essential for understanding behaviours in context, often applied in evidence-based therapy settings to inform treatment strategies.
