EMDR Therapy

EMDR Therapy, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is an innovative somatic treatment specifically designed to help individuals overcome trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and other emotional distress. Unlike traditional talk therapies, EMDR Therapy uses Bilateral Stimulation, such as guided eye movements, to facilitate the brain's natural healing processes.

EMDR Benefits:

Gradual Processing of Traumatic Memories
Time for Reflection
Great for Regular Weekly Treatments
Progressive Therapeutic Engagement

EMDR Intensives

EMDR Intensives are a powerful, rapid, and focused treatment designed to address traumatic memories, anxiety, PTSD, and other distressing experiences in a powerfully condensed timeframe. Unlike traditional counseling services that may spread sessions over weeks or months, EMDR Intensives are extended session durations over a shorter timeframe, allowing for more rapid processing for healing.

Excellent for addressing acute trauma and for situations requiring intensive intervention; such as maintaining peak performance where faltering is not an option. Ideal for professional athletes, executives, public figures, and stage performers or others looking to enhance performance and better manage anxiety.

CBT Informed Practices

At Desert Bloom we use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools as a component of your therapeutic treatment plan. CBT is integrated in areas such as skill building and building awareness of the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviors. CBT tools can be a helpful adjunct to other forms of therapy when clients need additional tools for managing stress and anxiety.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a somatic therapeutic approach that emphasizes being fully present and engaged in the current moment. As a component of our treatment philosophy, mindfulness ensures holistic self-awareness as we address issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic suffering due to lack of psychological safety. Through mindfulness exercises and meditation, individuals learn to respond to life’s challenges with greater resilience and compassion, leading to improved mental and emotional well-being.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

At Desert Bloom we incorporate Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, which is a traditional form of talk therapy, as a method to help individuals gain a deeper understanding of the origins of their problems as well as the strengths they possess to overcome them. This becomes the backdrop for our treatment plan and is utilized to explore and address underlying issues, fostering holistic personal growth and resilience.
