Clinical Hypnosis
Hypnosis allows people to concentrate better and gives a person focused attention to help them use their minds more powerfully. It is a state of inner absorption. Hypnotic suggestions and communication may change aspects of physiological and neurological functions, according to the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis. Ms. Linda Fleger-Berman, LICSW uses clinical hypnosis to encourage mental imagery. She also uses it to suggest ideas to a client, to understand a client’s motivations, or identify past experiences and events that may be causing problems.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Ms. Linda Fleger-Berman uses psychodynamic psychotherapy to help her Boston, MA clients with mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, panic and stress-related physical problems. Psychodynamic therapy focuses on self-reflection and self-examination — the psychological roots of emotional suffering.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Attachment-based therapy is focused on safety, education, containment, understanding, restructuring and engaging. The psychotherapist or therapist uses attachment-based therapy to listen to clients, learn about their emotions and teach them to calm the emotions without being self-destructive. It helps a psychotherapist manage a client’s resistance to change, anticipate set-backs and develop coping strategies. It is particularly useful in couples therapy, as it helps to teach the couple to work together to form a long-lasting, loving relationship.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is used by psychotherapists to help clients with psychodynamic, interpersonal, cognitive behavioral, body-centered and experiential therapies. It uses an eight-phase approach to address problems caused by past experiences that trigger dysfunctional emotions and beliefs.
Ms. Fleger-Berman, LICSW has advanced training in the assessment of attachment pathology in adults and attachment-based psychotherapy. She is certified in Adult Attachment Inventory and was taught by Deborah Jacobvitz, Ph.D. and Mary Main, Ph.D. She completed an advanced externship in Assessment and Treatment of Attachment Pathology with Daniel Brown, Ph.D.
