Integration Work
Unprocessed psychological and emotional trauma and stress injuries can lead the self to develop default, self-protective strategies that, while they served to keep us safe in the moment, can eventually have the opposite effect and limit us from engaging with ourselves and others in a way that feels safe and connected.
Maybe:
- You feel stuck in thoughts that you know aren’t true, but that keep hijacking you.
- You are having intrusive thoughts, images, emotions or nightmares.
- Your body reacts in ways that don’t always make sense and you can’t control.
- You are feeling shut down and frozen or restless and agitated.
- There is a ‘something’ that you can’t put your finger on but is getting in the way of how you want to live your life.
Memory re-consolidation techniques can help to process these stuck experiences so you will:
- Be able to update painful beliefs with more adaptive beliefs.
- Still remember a traumatic event, but more factually, without feeling overwhelmed.
- Properly file memories so they don’t pop up and randomly disrupt you.
- Feel more comfortable and safe in your body and mind.
- Find ways to help nightmares to ‘move forward’ and get unstuck.
