There are many schools of psychotherapy and I first studied and practiced a more formal style of talk therapy. And while I deeply value my foundation in these practices, for the past decade I’ve been moving toward a specialization in alternative models of healing. They are considered newer forms of treatment and are not like the more familiar and traditional models of talk therapy. The therapies I now use place a greater emphasis on what happens in your body and with your feelings when you are struggling and stressed. These therapies incorporate recent developments from the fields of Interpersonal Neurobiology and Attachment Theory.
