What is Lifespan Integration Therapy?
Have you ever felt like talking about the past just isn’t working to help you heal?
Healing from trauma often requires “right-brain experiential therapy” which engages emotions and sensory memory. This approach helps to address trauma's deep emotional and non-verbal impact, often more effectively than traditional talk therapy.
Gentle on the Nervous System
LI is a gentle trauma therapy that softly engages the nervous system, using memory timelines to integrate past experiences without re-traumatizing.
Increased Integration
LI uses memory timelines to connect and integrate past experiences, allowing the brain to naturally heal trauma. This gentle approach helps reframe negative patterns and reduces emotional triggers, fostering a sense of safety in the present which promotes long-term healing.
Connectedness to the Present
LI memory timelines always end in the present, facilitating safe connections for clients. By linking past traumatic experiences to current safety, this helps the brain & nervous system heal from past trauma gently and effectively.
Promotes Subcortical Regulation
Subcortical regulation involves managing brain structures like the amygdala and hippocampus for emotional regulation, memory processing, and stress response. Therapies like Lifespan Integration aim to enhance this regulation for improved emotional well-being and resilience.
Restructuring Neural Pathways
Lifespan Integration incorporates neuroscience principles to facilitate healing from trauma by rewiring neural pathways with the use of timelines. This again integrates past experiences into the present context of safety which allows the nervous system to feel more at-ease and no longer stuck in a survival state.
Reduced Anxiety & Depressive Symptoms
Lifespan Integration reduces anxiety and depression by integrating past traumas into present safety, promoting emotional healing and stability. This process helps individuals reclaim control over their narrative, fostering resilience and mental well-being.
