This clinic specializes in somatic therapy (though other options are available, too). Somatic therapy is designed to promote a higher awareness of what your body is doing through a series of physical movements and actions. Breathwork and directed eye movements are some of the exercises under the somatic umbrella.
This type of therapy works by training your brain to focus on what you are feeling, which is often buried underneath other thoughts. It teaches you to be less impulsive. By staying in the present moment you can lessen the impact of mental illness symptoms, including addiction.
If you have a co-occurring diagnosis, brain stimulating treatments like electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can also help alleviate symptoms. Both procedures work by stimulating brain activity in different ways. They’re traditionally used to treat depression and related conditions.
