Emotion-Focused Body Therapy, or EFBT for short, is a specialized body therapy session that was created and developed exclusively at the Lighthouse Emotional Wellness Center.  It assists in releasing stress and trauma patterns in the physical body through a combined and customized application of integrated techniques such as guided breathing and meditation, sonic entrainment, energy medicine, essential oils use, and therapeutic massage and bodywork. 

EFBT focuses on facilitating and nurturing a person through positive life change, and can allow for feelings, emotions, thoughts, and memories to surface, which may have been buried or "hidden" for years.  These layers of stress and trauma build over time and manifest physically, causing numerous physical and emotional conditions or illnesses to occur.  In an EFBT session, some people may experience a release--such as crying--which may seem or feel uncomfortable at first.  This is a good sign that an important issue is being worked on and worked through, as making any change is not an easy process.  Some people may or may not experience an emotional release during a session, and for each person the intensity level is different.  Most commonly, people experience relaxation and nurturing on a heightened holistic level.

Because of the nature of its affects, EFBT sessions COMPLEMENT our counseling services and are only available for those currently receiving counseling in order to ensure that proper emotional support is provided.  EFBT is not to be considered, or treated, as a counseling session, and therefore is not offered as a stand-alone service.

EFBT is an effective complementary service for anyone who has experienced, or are experiencing, the following:
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Weight Issues or Body-Image Issues
  • Chronic Pain
  • Fatigue
  • Physical Conditions due to Illnesses or Accidents
  • Relationship Issues
  • Abuse or PTSD
  • Chemical Dependency
  • Co-Dependency
      ... and much more.
Through Emotion-Focused Body Therapy, you will:
-  Feel nurtured and experience cleansing, grounding, and healing.
-  Release negative energy from your body, mind, and spirit.
-  Foster a positive outlook on your health and well-being.
