Initial Treatment or Extended Treatment - we ask that you schedule 1 1/2 hours for new patients, returning patients after a long absence, or for those who want a longer treatment.  Come to your initial appointment about 10 minutes early to fill out the two sided intake form that is in the waiting area.

Returning Patients Treatment Time Options:  
In Clinic treatments and Zoom Video Treatments - Extended Treatment  1 1/2 hours, Regular Treatment 1 hour, Quick Treatment 1/2 hour

Reset Treatment - 2 hours

This can be an option for the initial treatment, or for returning patients.  This treatment is for those who need to reset their nervous system down to the cellular level after a trauma or long term stress, wanting to feel themself again, and return to a natural calm or peaceful way of being.  It is recommended to schedule a few follow up appointments to help your body continue to tune into a nervous system anchored in a parasympathetic relaxed state.

NEW:    Safe and Sound Protocol  (SSP) - offered during any treatment

This is sound healing that can be done in clinic and at home to help your nervous system tune into the relaxing parasympathetic system, and learn to be more resilient when in those triggering, perceived unsafe, or stressful situations.  Research has shown that this is an effective treatment for PTSD and autism, but can help with any stressful times in life.  All that is needed are over the ear headphones that are not noise canceling headphones, and an adaptive jack to connect your cell phone and headphones.   You will need to download the SSP app which gives you access to a selection of music types to listen too.  You will be coached on how to use it, and be monitored on your use for those receiving a series of treatments.  It is in the autonomic nervous system that much of our trauma and stress lies hidden and which can become more and more sensitive and alarmed by life.  SSP has been found to reduce and balance this sensitivity in the autonomic nervous system, shifting the focus to feeling safe and relaxed with life.  Each SSP sessions can be up to 30 minutes daily. check out this short video about ssp :                                    https://youtu.be/baalpOg3Yts?si=sz8b0xV9FpaCbQaS
