Brain Health AEDP

Brain Health

“Brain Health is an emerging and growing concept that encompasses neural development, plasticity, functioning, and recovery across the life course.”[1]

 

Since the brain is mission control, a person’s ability to function well in any domain of everyday life rests on good brain health.  And given that the brain ages just as the rest of our body does, it is vital to keep your brain healthy throughout life.

AEDP

Accelerated experiential-dynamic psychotherapy focuses on techniques to bring about healing and helping clients to achieve behaviour transformation. The outcomes are facilitated through a exploring difficult experiences that have had a profound relational or emotional effect on the client's life experience.

Dr. Diana Fosha developed this innovative approach which is closely related to other disciplines, including body-focused approaches, affective neuroscience and attachment theory. The goal of Accelerated experiential-dynamic psychotherapy is to tap into the client's untapped inner resources for healing. The AEDP approach equips clients with the skills they require to confront and deal with emotional traumas, instead of resorting to defensive tactics, which is a common knee-jerk reaction. It allows the client to see their own internal coping skills that were hidden before, and to wake those inner strengths to become a natural response to life's circumstances.
