Approach

Seeking help is a sign of maturity, not weakness.

There are many types of healers and methods for treatment. Our expertise is to heal psychological trauma that needs to be reprocessed and simultaneously open access to learned lessons, emotional resources, spiritual gifts and connection to higher power. We tend to practice a collaborative model where your expertise is your unique life experience and ours is clinical training.

Our main clinical modality is EMDR. We start with traditional assessment and talk therapy to identify the problem and subsequently use EMDR to connect new, more adaptive brain pathways for lasting change.

The process of change can happen in so many mysterious ways. We are committed to staying anchored in our clinical training while also receiving divine support and wisdom available. Here is a list of the clinical practices we employ that also integrate with spiritual development.

EMDR therapy in Bend, Oregon at Mirror Pond Counseling

EMDR

At Mirror Pond Counseling, we utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy EMDR. This therapy rewires disturbing beliefs and emotions that are held and replayed in your current relationships. If you have a feeling this could help you, watch the videos for more information.

Psychedelic Journey Integration

Many individuals are getting great results at Ketamine clinics and Psilocybin Service Centers. We have specially trained integration therapists who can help you prepare for your psychedelic journey and integrate insights post psychedelic journey. Therapists play a big part in contributing to safety and harm reduction when clinics and service centers cannot always offer ongoing integration support. We have partnerships with providers and are committed to providing integration support within the psychedelic community.

Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS)

At Mirror Pond Counseling, we utilize the Internal Family Systems model to gain awareness about your unique internal system which is comprised of your Higher Self, your protective parts and your inner traumatized exiles who are waiting to be healed in a sustainable, safe manner. We recommend this IFS resource to our clients.

Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy

Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy is a big part of the practice, based on the God or higher power of one’s experience or understanding. We believe spirituality is the most powerful modality, but its also the most subjective force. You are welcome to bring in any spiritual gifts, imagery, or belief sets that will aid you in becoming relentlessly who you are.

We integrate these respective clinical and spiritual methods in the healing process, depending on how your body, mind and heart are ready to heal.

Because the Holy Spirit is often elusive, I added this video by Dr. Irene Siegel because she describes in accurate terms how EMDR and spiritually can be integrated using your spiritual resources. As client and therapist, our hearts create a resonance that is powerful and sometimes can bring about healing surprisingly easily!

Healing starts here.
