According to the EMDR International Association,
“…EMDR therapy does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or completing homework between sessions. EMDR therapy, rather than focusing on changing the
emotions, thoughts, or behaviors resulting from the distressing issue, allows the brain to resume its natural healing process. EMDR therapy is designed to resolve unprocessed traumatic memories in the brain. For many clients, EMDR therapy can be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies.”
According to the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute,
“…SP welcomes the body as an integral source of information which can guide resourcing and the accessing and processing of challenging, traumatic, and developmental experience … SP enables clients to discover and change habitual physical and psychological patterns that impede optimal functioning and well-being.
SP helps clients cultivate their strengths while providing enough challenge to stimulate growth, long-lasting change, and well-being.”
According to the American Psychological Association,
“CBT treatment usually involves efforts to change thinking patterns. These strategies might include: Learning to recognize one’s distortions in thinking that are creating problems and then reevaluate them in light of reality, gaining a better understanding of the behavior and motivation of others, using problem-solving skills to cope with difficult situations, learning to develop a greater sense of confidence in one’s own abilities.”
