When attempting to manage difficult experiences and struggles on our own isn't working, turning to therapy can be a life changer. At Sunstone Health & Wellness Barbara offers many alternative modalities, as well as traditional therapy, to support you in finding the solutions to your problems. Barbara strives to offer unique, but profound, approaches for people looking for treatment outside of traditional therapy. Art Therapy, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing and Yoga techniques are beneficial because of their ability to reach past words and enhance talk therapy by incorporating mind, body, and spirit into your treatment. Art Therapy uses art and the creative process to work through difficulties. Combining the creativity of art with traditional therapy can give you an alternative to words to help develop solutions. Somatic Experiencing is a therapeutic approach that works to heal trauma through working with the nervous system. EMDR is one of only two treatment modalities approved by the World Health Organization for individuals with trauma and PTSD. A highly effective way of working, EMDR helps with processing through disturbing memories and other issues. Certification in Yoga-Informed Psychotherapy involves the use of yoga and breathing with regards to the mental health benefits. Barbara also has training in Yoga for Trauma Recovery.
