"Traumatic stress cuts to the heart of life, interfering with one’s capacity to love, create, & work - incapacity brought on not by poor lifestyle choices, moral weakness, or character flaws but by a complex interplay among biology, genes, & environment." - Shaili Jain, M.D.
Modalities
Understanding one of the major deterrents to therapy can be the unknown regarding how long the process will last, the below is an attempted to address your concerns. While there is no guarantee, given the uniqueness of each person, we believe that at the beginning of the fourth session we will be able to have a collaborative dialogue around which modality will be the most helpful to you. Below are estimations of what each modality is likely to require for ethical and effective treatment.
Initial Consultation, Intake Assessment, Modality Congruence, and Trauma Narrative will take a minimum of 4 sessions; understanding more time may be necessary. Once you are ready to move into the Evidence Based Practice (EBP) that we have agreed upon - the following is an estimated time line*.
Eye-Movement, Desensitization, & Reprocessing (EMDR) .. approx. 5 to 12 sessions
Trauma Informed Guilt Reduction (TrIGR) .. approx. 8 sessions (with homework)
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) .. approx. 8 sessions (with homework)
