Emotional Transformation Therapy Emotional Transformation Therapy: An Interactive Ecological Psychotherapy describes an entirely original approach to psychotherapy that drastically accelerates therapeutic outcomes in terms of speed and long-term effects. It includes an attachment-based interpersonal approach that increases the impact of the therapist-client bond and is amplified by the precise use of the client's visual ecology. This synthesis is called Emotional Transformation Therapy® (ETT®)
Accelerated Ecological Psychotherapy: ETT Applications for Sleep Disorders, Pain, and Addiction ETT® Applications for Sleep Disorders, Pain, and Addiction describes a number of therapeutic breakthroughs for a diverse array of conditions. The means for accomplishing these advances are specific attachment-based interpersonal processes that are radically amplified by using precise elements of the client's visual ecology. Forms of visually initiated brain stimulation include (1) an innovative form of eye movement, (2) a specialized type of peripheral eye stimulation, (3) Spectral Resonance Technique that uses intense color, and (4) a tunable light device from which hundreds of precise wavelengths of light can be selected to emit into the client's eyes. The method is called Emotional Transformation Therapy® (ETT®). This approach consistently relieves disturbing emotions in seconds, alleviates physical pain in minutes, and frequently evokes states of extreme wellbeing. This book offers a new process theory of emotion focused on the nature and progression patterns of emotions. The book describes an entirely different treatment for seasonal affective disorder (SAD) that offers a radical new level of treatment outcome. Since external light controls the brain's biological clock that dictates sleep and waking patterns, ETT® can be used to treat a variety of sleep disorders.
Spiritually Transformative Psychotherapy Spiritually Transformative Psychotherapy offers fresh insights into counseling people with diverse spiritual and religious philosophies. Grounded in theory and research, this text focuses on building contemplative methods like meditation into practice and provides valuable applications to help clients work toward forgiveness, resolving spiritual conflicts between partners, and ultimately achieving spiritual and emotional wellbeing.
