Are you looking for alternative approaches to resolving or enhancing your mental health?  More and more people are seeking a more holistic and natural approach to mental health.  According to the Fraser Institute in 2016 they stated that 79% of Canadians have used at least one alternative therapy sometime in their lives.

Many issues can be addressed to some degree using talk therapy styles (counselling) to remedy emotional and relational struggles, but all too often talk is not enough.  Through a couple of decades of practice the best clinical results occur when both talk type of therapy and (CAM) Complimentary and Alternative Medicine approaches are utilized.  A combination of numerous approaches proves to show the best results in helping to resolve mental health issues.

Clinical experience for us has shown that the best approach to resolving relationship issues, adult attachment issues, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, PTSD, grief, and many other issues is to approach therapy and counselling from a two-pronged approach.  Using EMDR and Homeopathy.

EMDR Approach

EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that stimulates the two hemispheres of the brain which facilitates and accelerates the relearning of emotionally adverse and traumatic events. This bilateral stimulation of the brain done through an 8 phase process resolves the majority of a person’s issues given within the adverse life event(s).  It is said to be an AIP model, Accelerated Information Processing.  This moves past traditional talk therapy because of its speed in brain processing.  This may not be right for everyone but once a person is prepared it is marvellous in its lasting results.

SPECT imaging and fMRI results of EMDR have been documented to show the radical and effective changes it does to the brain and ultimately the person’s life.

Homeopathic Approach

From a natural holistic, CAM, approach emotions and feelings can be both regulated as well as processed to bring healing and resolution.  Within nature there are powerful means by which we can help shift mood, balance hormones, and shift the electrical aspects of the brain and nervous system.

Through clinical practice it has been evidenced that those that have utilized both EMDR and a naturopathic approach to treatment have successfully resolved their issues.  Some of these issues are both physiological and in nature such as:  anxiety, IBD issues, PTSD, depression and anger, liver and bile flow issues, lung and fear issues, ADHD and brain and nervous system function, and much more.

Issues addressed

Resolving your mental health issues is a must because it will not only hinder your quality of life ly and emotionally but also it will eventually impair your physical health. Some medical doctors have stated that unresolved emotional issues are at the root of 70-95% of all chronic illnesses and degenerative diseases.   These unresolved emotional issues and mental illnesses often have their root cause in such abuses and traumas as: 

• sexual assault and abuse
• physical assault 
• verbal and emotional abuse
• monetary abuse
• neglect in childhood
• medical or dental trauma
