How Can We Help?

Psychotherapy is covered by Insurance In Toronto and  Ontario

Hello,

My name is Adina Nistor, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) 

I can help you heal from negative emotions and negative thought patterns, by using Somatic Therapy in conjunction with Mindfulness and Relational Psychodynamic methods.

The goal of somatic therapy is to return to our true sense of Self, and live life from that place. |t is a process that requires the courage to step into the depths of undesired emotions and feelings, instead of running and turning away from them. Facings our worst fears can be a liberating experience, and that can result in living life fuller and feeling more confident in the self and gut feelings. 

I believe that opening up about our struggles sheds light on the things that have always remained hidden and is the first step to healing our minds and bodies.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is Somatic Therapy
    Somatic Therapy is Body centred therapy that usually leads to a release of pent un tensions and emotions from the body. The release is achieved through the process of attunement to the body neutrally and non judgmentally in the present moment.
  • What is the process in somatic healing?
    The name of the somatic therapy I use is called CRM- developed by Lisa Schwarz: https://comprehensiveresourcemodel.com/lisa-schwarz/ The process entails: Attunement, or focus, is brought to body sensations that hold painful emotions, as well as body sensation that hold feelings of security peace and love. In order to make the nervous system stronger to get to the root of the painful emotions, a number of techniques are used to optimize attunement: - Breathing techniques - Sound-toning - attachment attunement behaviours with an imaginary animal or Spiritual Being - Brainspotting- the use of eye positions to improve focus - Sacred Geometry - Sacred place- attunement to nature
  • How long does Therapy last?
    Therapy length differs from case to case, and there is no specific time frame for change to occur. Therapy length can depend of the following factors: The therapeutic goal Generational history Childhood history Your current environment The presence or absence of traumatic experiences The way in which emotions are processed in general Adherence to the therapeutic approach
  • How is somatic therapy different from talk therapy?
    Somatic therapy recognizes that understanding where emotions come from is not enough to change the way we feel and react. A deeper process is needed in order to alter the automatic and reflexive reactions of the nervous system. It helps to undo unwanted conditioned responses, as well as relieving the body of resentment and the pain we hang onto from life disappointments.
