Coherence Psychotherapy lays out the steps necessary to facilitate memory reconsolidation, our brain’s built‑in process for updating historical, previously important survival‑based emotional learnings that continue to drive behavior long after they are necessary. If you’ve had the experience of knowing intellectually that a behavior does not serve you, yet remain powerless to change it, it is most likely driven by old emotional beliefs operating out of conscious awareness. Coherence Psychotherapy can help us bridge the gap between what we know to be true and what we actually do. It is effective at treating a full range of mental health and behavioral issues including, but not limited to anxiety, depression, compulsive behaviors, substance abuse, disordered eating, self‑esteem issues, relationship issues, PTSD, developmental trauma (C‑PTSD).
Memory reconsolidation is the basis for all effective trauma treatment, and when its steps are carried out successfully, creates permanent, effortless changes in behaviors and beliefs that no longer serve us. Like all good trauma treatment methods, Coherence Psychotherapy is an experiential treatment, meaning it facilitates real‑time experiences in the treatment room to help us get in touch with, and then update, subconsciously held material that drives deeply ingrained behaviors that may be harmful to ourselves and our relationships. It can be used as a stand‑alone method, or in conjunction with other trauma‑informed treatment models to make them even more effective.
