Therapy That Supports Feeling Your Best
A specialized psychotherapeutic approach supporting high achievers navigating autoimmune conditions
Living with an autoimmune condition can affect far more than your physical health. You might experience ongoing stress, emotional exhaustion, nervous system strain, and a sense that your inner experience is often overlooked. More importantly, your inner experience and physical body are one. If you positively affect one you positively affect the other. That’s what we help you do: effect positive change on the body using psychotherapy. It works.
Leveraging the Mind-Body Connection
Our highly effective, transformative work is grounded in the understanding that unconscious processes affect the nervous system and determine how you experience and manifest an autoimmune condition (mentally and physically). Through individualized psychotherapy, we will:
- Uncover currently unconscious patterns that could be contributing to the condition
- Reduce chronic stress load and have symptoms manifest LESS
- Support nervous system stability
- Process unresolved emotional patterns so your physical body can recalibrate its inherently intelligent health processes accordingly
- Strengthen emotional resilience
- Improve overall quality of life tremendously
This work is not a replacement for medical care but is designed to complement it. It leverages the mind-body connection to add genuine wellness back to your life. Our goal is that you feel your absolute best. Every day.
Individualized, High-Touch, Private Care
No two people experience autoimmune conditions in the same way.
Each therapeutic relationship is highly individualized and tailored to your emotional history, stress patterns, and life context.
You receive:
- One-on-one psychotherapy
- Unconscious emotional processing and integration work to undo the mental factors contributing to stress and manifestation of disease
- Supportive strategies for stress regulation
- Results you can physically feel as the mind and body integrate to wholeness
We recommend an engagement of 6 months, though you can always start our therapy services for a few sessions. See how you feel the difference and take it from there. Our method is 100% bespoke to give you success based on your condition and needs as well as to address the unconscious contributing factors to the disease so you can ultimately have your great life back.
The cause of each person’s condition is completely unique to their psychological makeup and unconscious patterns which is why personalized one-on-one therapy is the only way to uncover and address these issues.
Most therapists have no knowledge of how psychological processes induce autoimmune conditions. Here at Autoimmune Associates we specialize in this area and have successfully helped individuals with various autoimmune conditions. You will find the full list of conditions we treat below.
