Summer Flash Sessions
Summer Flash Sessions
Flash Technique 2 hour Individual & Relational Sessions are:
Similar to EMDR, BUT a quicker, more gentle approach to caring for past wounds.
Will include education about the approach, including the science of memory reconsolidation, and how the Vagus nerve and body play an integral role in this experiential session
NOT traditional psychotherapy sessions: it DOES NOT encourage the participant(s) to recount their stories of trauma extensively, the FOCUS is on the somatic bridge created by a current stressor/relational struggle which is then linked to the feeder memory from long ago.
A subconscious processing approach: We focus on a pleasant or distracting conversation while engaging in bi-lateral, physical movement and rapid blinking, interrupting the memory network of implicit myths you hold within.
a minimally invasive trauma-informed approach, initially developed by Phil Manfield and Lewis Engel.
Do you have old memories that pop up and shock, disrupt, confuse, or derail you? Do you find yourself reacting in the moment to stress, and then later feeling shame/guilt about how “intensely” you witnessed yourself reacting? Have you or others labeled your reactions as “too much” or “too sensitive”?
Trauma is not about what happened to you, it is about how your body reacted and the implicit (below conscious awareness) learnings we took on from that moment in time.
Some of the implicit learnings I see the most often include:
“I’m not safe”
“I’m bad”
“I’m not worthy”
“I’m not lovable”
“I’m not ____ enough”
Because these implicit messages live below our conscious awareness, they dictate how our bodies perceive stimuli in the environment now, and we energetically re-enact these experiences from our past in the present—generally with those we love the most.
Feedback after Flash sessions:
Somatic changes, reduced tension/pain in the body
Self-compassion
Significant distance from the original memory and the recent “triggering experience” with an ability to witness the memories/experiences rather than feel locked inside them
Spontaneous Self-led, Adaptive responses/thoughts
System Updates: A nervous system no longer dictated by implicit myths of rejection, abandonment fears, betrayals, lacking safety, defectiveness, and powerlessness.
Transformational perspective shifts and burden releases
Interpersonal Peace and increased connection
