True Change is Possible
Experiential: More about "feeling" and "experiencing" than purely talking or analyzing.
Targeted: Directly targets the emotional roots of problems for deeper, faster change.
Empirically-Derived: Based on scientific understanding of memory and brain function, and how traumatic experiences, memories, and relationships can be changed and healed—allowing thoughts, feelings, and behaviours to change as well.
