Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is a partnership between you and your therapist to help you not only manage mental health symptoms, but to discover what underlies these symptoms and heal what is causing them.  Some common symptoms are anxiety, depression, anger outbursts, substance abuse, panic attacks, relationship turmoil, sleep issues, hopelessness, nightmares, over eating, phobias, isolation, feeling out of control.  These symptoms are some of the ways our body tries to communicate to us that something is wrong.  It is through the therapeutic relationship that you will explore your symptoms and not only learn how to reduce them in the present, but to heal what is causing them, so that the symptom itself subsides.

EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) is one type of therapy that you and your therapist may determine would be useful for you to discover and heal the underlying roots of your symptoms.  EMDR is an experiential treatment, different than traditional talk therapy, that is extremely effective in reducing many mental health symptoms.  All of the therapists at The Center for Insight and Connection are trained or in the process of being trained by the EMDR Institute.  All therapists are receiving consultation from Patty Dirilten directly.   Please watch the video below to learn more about this amazing treatment approach.
