AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy)
It’s a mouthful, but what it really means is that we provide therapy that uses the “here and now” in the therapy room (experiential), to track our client’s inner experience (emotions, somatic experiences), with a heavy emphasis on being “with” our clients as they allow us into their emotional experience, past sufferings, and joyful new experiences. We believe that “undoing” the terrible aloneness of hard emotions and difficult situations creates lasting change.
To learn more, we recommend reading Hillary Jacob Hendel’s book, “It’s Not Always Depression.” Hendel wrote her book for the client, not the therapist, and we feel like her book is a must read for every human. You can also visit her website hillaryjacobshendel.com, which contains a wealth of information, and even courses you can take.
