What is EMDR?  

EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.  In EMDR the client and therapist choose a specific problem to work on.  After identifying the images, negative belief, emotions and body sensations associated with this problem, the client will make eye movements to unlock thoughts and feelings about this problem that have been “stuck” or “frozen” in the brain’s information processing system.  In this way distress becomes reduced or completely eliminated, and clients end up with a more positive belief about themselves. 

What are TFT and EFT? 

TFT (Thought Field Therapy) and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) are very similar.

Think of them as acupuncture without the needles.  While thinking about a problem, the client taps with the fingertips on certain meridian points to release blocked energy patterns in the body, mind, heart, and spirit.

Shifts can sometimes happen quickly with EMDR, TFT and EFT and results are often permanent.


   

Couples Counseling

Ruth has trained extensively in Imago Relationship Therapy.  She works with couples one-on-one in her office and also offers the GETTING THE LOVE YOU WANT weekend workshop at a hotel in the Phoenix area. The workshop is the best way to experience Imago Relationship Therapy and is often compared to 4 to 6 months of individual therapy.

Couples sessions are normally 60 or 75 minutes.  In the beginning sessions are weekly, and then as progress is made, sessions are often every other week.

 

Pre-marital Counseling

Ruth works with couples who want to build a strong foundation for their relationship before marrying and avoid the mistakes they have made in past relationships..  The GETTING THE LOVE YOU WANT weekend workshop provides an excellent overview of the tasks involved in building that foundation.  Couples can also work with Ruth one-on-one in her office.

Pre-marital counseling sessions are usually 60 or 75 minutes on a weekly basis at first.  Then as progress is made, sessions are every other week.
