I took this photo March 13th just before we went into shutdown in CT. This year has stretched us to reach beyond our limits, to reimagine our businesses and our lives. Our learning, our social interaction and connections have become virtual. Each day we are called to stretch a bit more. We can persevere, we can open ourselves and we can fluorish, together.

One step at a time.
One breath at a time.
One moment at a time.

My top 3 reasons for integrating essential oils into your clinical practice:
1. Essential oils contain properties to calm or uplift mood.
2. Inhaling an essential oil is the quickest way to create a state change.
3. Because they work so quickly - under 20 seconds, oils create more time to address the underlying emotional concern in session.

Trauma rooted in the unmet needs of childhood intrude in unexpected ways in the here and now. These wounds interfere with daily living and can come out sideways when least expected. Attachment-Focused EMDR incorporating parts work is a powerful combination for healing these wounds.

How does EMDR work?

Much like Jenga, we systematically reprocess and remove the emotional distress of a memory. This destabilizes the memory network in the brain, leading to collapse of the memory network, just like Jenga!

Peace is always an option, regardless of circumstance.

We are all called to find our truest selves....What is your calling?

Big breaths, small steps...

What do you do when it seems as if people want to stay in their pain?

They have a story to tell and they tell you every chance they get. Well, believe it or not, they may like where they are.

Our job is to leave them there. You can point the way out of pain, but you cannot force them to get out. You can support the move beyond their limitations, but you cannot make the move for them.

Upleveling my EMDR skills this morning at the New Haven EMDR Network Meeting. Great to connect with 50 of my EMDR colleagues. 🧠👀🧠

Offering kindness, particularly when it is challenging is perhaps, the greatest act of compassion.

There are many who believe focusing on Brain Health can relieve many psycho-emotional symptoms. What is certain, addressing healthy brain behaviors will make a positive impact in our client's well-being 💪🏻🧠 💪🏻

This is the core of EMDR Therapy - the intrusive, dysfunctional ways the past is present. Fortunately, this is the beginning of treatment. By the end of therapy, the memories fade into the past without the unpleasant emotional charge.

Providing good quality education is one of our core values.
All of our continuing education programs are evidenced-based and provide usable skills to implement immediately.

Today our EMDR clinicians at the Center for NeuroPotential are pausing to take a deep dive in learning more about
Working with Attachment Through the Lens of EMDR:
Security and the Sense of Self. More and more we find the most success in healing current day trauma is found in childhood attachment woundings. Want to learn more, contact Deb Del Vecchio-Scully for consultation: [email protected]

Limbic countertransference: when your client’s trauma gets you in the gut.

I headed to the beach to stress and reset my CNS.

How do you handle it when it sneaks up on you?

Worry is one of the most common forms of imagery created. How do you help clients manage their worries?
