Anneke R. on LinkedIn: Helping more people improve their mental health: that is my wish and goal… (2024)

The Power of Consistency in Your Healing Journey🌟At Blissful Minds, we believe in the transformative power of consistent, dedicated work in your healing journey. Just like achieving fitness goals at the gym, the road to mental and emotional well-being requires commitment, practice, and time.🔄 Why Schedule 6 Sessions?🔄Starting therapy can be a big step. One of the most common questions new clients ask is, "How many sessions will it take to feel better?" The answer varies, but here's a general guide to help you understand the journey.Research shows that clients often start to feel better after about 3 to 6 sessions, with more substantial improvement occurring around the 12th to 20th session mark.Consistency and continuity are the cornerstones of effective therapy. When you schedule 6 sessions, you're not just setting aside time on a calendar – you're making a powerful commitment to your mental health. Here’s why this approach is essential:Build Momentum🚀Just as you wouldn’t expect to get fit from one gym visit, meaningful psychological change doesn't happen overnight. Regular sessions help build momentum, allowing you to delve deeper into your thoughts and feelings with each visit.Create a Safe Space🛋️Continuity fosters a safe, trusting environment. When sessions are regular, you’ll feel more comfortable opening up, knowing that your next opportunity to explore and process your feelings is just around the corner.Sustain Progress📈Healing is a journey with ups and downs. Regular sessions ensure that during tougher times, you have the support you need to sustain and build on your progress.Develop Coping Strategies🧠Like any skill, coping strategies require practice. By committing to regular sessions, you'll have the chance to learn, refine, and apply these strategies consistently in your life.Deepen Understanding🔍Regular interaction allows us to explore patterns, behaviors, and underlying issues more effectively. Each session builds on the last, leading to deeper insights and more profound healing.💬 Your Healing Journey Begins with a Commitment💬Scheduling your sessions is a step towards taking charge of your mental health. It's a commitment to yourself, to your growth, and to your future. Think of it as investing in your well-being, much like you would invest time and effort into your physical health.📅 Schedule Your 6 Sessions Today📅Ready to take the next step? Contact us to schedule your 6 sessions and start experiencing the benefits of consistent, dedicated therapy. Your future self will thank you.#BlissfulMinds #MentalHealthMatters #TherapyJourney #CommitToHeal #ConsistencyIsKey #WellnessJourney #MentalWellness #BookNow #HealingTogether

Did you know that EMDR Therapy has 8 Phases? ⬇️If you're curious about Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, you're in the right place! 🧠✨EMDR is a powerful therapy technique that helps people process past traumas and overcome emotional distress.Here's a glimpse into the 8 transformative phases of EMDR therapy:1️⃣ History Taking & Treatment Planning: We start by diving deep into your personal history to understand your unique experiences and develop a tailored treatment plan.2️⃣ Preparation: Building a foundation of trust and safety is essential. In this phase, we equip you with coping skills to manage distress and prepare for the EMDR process.3️⃣ Assessment: Identifying specific target memories or experiences to reprocess is key. Together, we pinpoint the core memories contributing to your current struggles.4️⃣ Desensitization: This is where the magic happens! Using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements), we facilitate the reprocessing of traumatic memories, helping them lose their emotional charge.5️⃣ Installation: We reinforce positive beliefs and insights gained during desensitization, helping you internalize a sense of safety, empowerment and self-worth.6️⃣ Body Scan: Emotions are stored not just in the mind, but also in the body. We explore any residual physical sensations associated with the trauma to ensure holistic healing.7️⃣ Closure: We wrap up each session with a sense of calm and stability, ensuring you feel grounded and safe before parting ways.8️⃣ Reevaluation: As you progress through EMDR therapy, we continually reassess your symptoms and goals, adjusting our approach as needed to support your journey to healing.EMDR therapy offers hope and healing for those struggling with trauma and distressing experiences.If you're ready to embark on a transformative journey towards healing, reach out to learn more about how EMDR therapy can support you. You don't have to face your challenges alone. 💙 #EMDR #TherapyJourney#thebodykeepsthescore
