ISPS Trauma Therapy
ISPS Trauma Therapy is a new form of a transformational set of techniques that rapidly eliminates the source of negative emotions & limiting beliefs. It is based on decades of exploration of efficient therapeutic modalities by a worldwide team . It uses a powerful, sophisticated model of consciousness that allows you to break free from emotions like fear, grief, anger, and more, by healing them directly, sometimes in a matter of hours, in person or over zoom. Many issues can be resolved in 3-5 sessions, and allow you to enter positive states of calm, joy, peace, energy, or bliss.
Types of issues I work with:
- Recovering from difficult life events (death, accidents, abuse, neglect, grief)
- Personal challenges (critical inner voices, intense emotions, negative beliefs, difficulty achieving goals)
- Business challenges (interpersonal issues, difficulty making business decisions)
- Romantic relationships (triggers, resentments, communication issues, conflicts)
- Chronic pain (back, neck, head, etc.) – Yes! This too can have successful treatments by some of the techniques
- Chronic Sleep Issues (difficulties falling asleep or staying asleep, recurring dreams, nightmares or night terrors)
Types of Healing
Compensatory healing involves developing skills and routines to counteract negative feelings and beliefs and create positive momentum. Many coaching and therapeutic approaches employ this method. For instance, if you struggle with impostor syndrome, you might learn to reframe negative thoughts as “inner criticism,” practice daily affirmations, and keep a journal of accomplishments to boost confidence. Coaches may also help you set achievable goals that provide external validation upon completion. Gradually, with consistent support and effort, you can reshape your self-perception and enhance your effectiveness. However, relying on coping skills and external validation means setbacks are possible, particularly if something triggers the negative feelings strongly enough, or if you fall out of your routine. Similar to pumping up a leaky tire, if you stop pumping, the air leaks out.
Direct healing involves finding and eliminating the root cause of negative feelings or beliefs. This is the type of healing that I use. For instance, if you struggle with imposter syndrome, directly healing this issue will eliminate the trauma that is causing you to doubt your intelligence or competence, freeing you from its influence permanently. With the issue resolved, you’ll not only realize that there was never any reason to doubt yourself, but you’ll also instinctively know the limits of your capabilities, enabling you to naturally choose situations suited to your strengths. Unlike compensatory healing, direct healing ensures you won’t be shaken by triggers, because the feelings that were being triggered are now gone. Furthermore, it doesn’t require ongoing willpower or support since there’s no internal struggle. This is equivalent to patching a leaky tire: once it’s fixed, you don’t have to think about it anymore.
Trauma
No one wants to hear that they have trauma. The word conjures up images of war, abuse, broken childhoods, and intolerable emotional experiences. But the reality is that everyone has some amount of trauma, and it’s nothing to be afraid of when you have the tools to deal with it.
The definition of trauma I use is any negative experience that still affects you in the present — things that happened in the past, but that still affect you today. Trauma is the source of most of the negative feelings we experience in life, as well as our perceived limitations. In the example from the section above, trauma is what causes the feeling of not being smart or competent. Trauma negatively shapes our view of what’s possible, our interpretation of life events, and our experience of ourselves. It’s the single biggest factor in how a person’s life plays out.
Most coaching avoids the subject of trauma but is essentially helping people identify and compensate for trauma in order to achieve goals. I help my clients address and heal trauma directly, removing the obstacles to achieving goals, as well as making goals feel more achievable. The feeling of relief, well-being, and increased capability that follows the healing of trauma is more than worth the effort.
In some cases, healing trauma results in a peak experience that continues indefinitely. This is known as a peak state of consciousness. It varies by person, but it often involves feelings of love, sacredness, peace, clarity, or connectedness that are beyond what you would consider normal. While this isn’t the goal of healing, it’s certainly very nice when it happens. Consider it a bonus for all your hard work.
Pay-per-Session
For people who want to explore a general issue, or who prefer the familiarity and flexibility of the traditional pay-per-session model. Payment is due at the end of each session.
Pay-for-Results
For people who have a specific goal and want the security of paying a flat fee for guaranteed results. In our initial session, we clarify the issue and define a clear, achievable outcome. Many concerns can be addressed in 3–5 sessions, with each session typically lasting 90 minutes for optimal results. We may need to treat separate issues individually, depending on what comes up.
Once the desired result is achieved, we schedule two follow-up sessions about a week apart to ensure the healing is stable and lasting. If the agreed-upon outcome is met and you are satisfied, then we proceed with the payment. If not, there is no fee. Additionally, if the specific issue returns, we will either resume sessions at no extra charge or you receive a refund. This guarantee is ongoing. Cases of issues returning long-term are extremely uncommon.
More about Pay-for-Results
The Pay-for-Results model was created to address a conflict of interest that arises when charging an hourly rate: if a client isn’t making progress, it can be difficult for a practitioner to tell them to find someone else who can help them. This is how practitioners can become “paid friends”, with their clients rehashing the same issues over and over.
But with Pay-for-Results, everyone wins. Practitioners are incentivized to maximize their performance, delivering the most healing in the least amount of time. Clients benefit by having results delivered quickly, guaranteed — if the result is not achieved, there is no fee. While this may sound like a radical and even perilous departure from the norm, modern healing has advanced to the point of reliability, and most people are honest when they get what they came for.
When using the Pay-for-results model, we clarify Pay-for-Results is most suitable when the client has a specific, measurable goal. For example, many clients want to stop being triggered by a painful memory or to stop falling into a familiar pattern of behavior. A contract is written to include measures that indicate whether the issue is resolved, with provisions for partial resolution if desired. Once the measures are achieved, the issue is considered tentatively resolved. From there, two more sessions are scheduled to ensure that the issue does not reappear. If the client remains stable, the issue is considered fully resolved, and payment is collected.
Types of Issues I can’t work with
I cannot work with a client if they:
- have experienced suicidality in the past 5 years, or have made a suicide attempt or plan.
- have a medical heart condition that may pose a risk for cardiac arrest during emotional processing.
- have severe substance use disorder, for whom I will refer to therapists who specialize in that area.
- wish to work on sexual abuse trauma, for whom I will refer to therapists who specialize in that area.
