Changing Paradigms in Psychotherapy • Talk Therapy Paradigm • Psychiatric Medication Paradigm • The Biophysics Paradigm • The Quantum Physics Paradigm
ETT™: The New Frontier in Psychotherapy • Severe affective states change within seconds • Cognitive states change within minutes • Severe and chronic physical pain relieved in seconds • Reversal of dissociative states takes place within minutes
New Frontier • When light enters the eyes, • photoreceptors convert light • into neural impulses that • travel in circuits that involve • the entire brain and nervous • system
By controlling factors like • angle of entry, wavelength of • light and mental focus, • appropriate external light • stimulation can access the • neural circuit responsible for • an emotional or physical • symptom
Specific wavelengths of light • resonate with certain • emotional and/or physical • states which result in rapid • changes of these states • Spectral Resonance • Technique can be used to • access implicit memory and • somatically held emotions
Emotional Transformation Therapy • Visual light stimulation functions as a catalyst for emotional processing • Specific angles at which light enters the eyes can rapidly reduce emotional flooding or physical pain
Emotional Transformation Therapy • Multidimensional eye movement processes can simultaneously diagnose and rapidly resolve severe trauma and physical symptoms
Emotional Transformation Therapy • Through specific rates of pulsing light, specific brainwave states can be elicited for therapeutic purposes • ETT™ combines visual brain stimulation with specific attachment based interpersonal interventions to acquire rapid, long-term change
Attachment Patterns • Scientific research has found that attachment patterns: • Determine biochemical brain regulation • Govern emotional regulation • Are changeable through interpersonal influence
Attachment Patterns • Therefore attachment oriented psychotherapy can: • Change brain biochemistry • Change emotional regulation patterns
Breakthroughs in Treatment of Several Trauma • Acute Stress Disorders • PTSD • Complex Trauma • Anxiety Disorders • Sleep Disorders
Breakthroughs in Treatment of Several Conditions • Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.) • Major Depression • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (A.D.H.D.) • Eating Disorders • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Extraordinary Relief of Physical Pain Syndromes • Lower Back Pain • Migraine Headaches • Sciatica • Tempero Mandibular Joint Pain (TMJ) • Fibromyalgia • Arthritis
Diagnostic Issues Related to Sexual Compulsivity • Differentiate recreational user from addictive use • Differentiate psychological disorders from sexual compulsivity • Does the sexual compulsivity contribute to psychological disorders? • How available is one’s source for sexual stimulation?
Diagnostic Issues • Does sex addiction mask psychiatric syndromes? • How severe is the sexual addiction? • Relationship, legal occupational or financial consequences of sexual addiction
Are There Cross- Addictions? • Sexual compulsivity and cocaine use • Sexual compulsivity and alcohol use • Sexual compulsivity and over-the-counter drug use • Sexual compulsivity and prescription drug use

Treatment Plan • Establish a therapeutic rapport and perceived safety • Identify People who can support treatment (family, friends) • Identify and educate co-addicts
Treatment Plan • Identify denial issues and propensity for lying and seek collateral help if necessary • Identify and process guilt and shame issues • Identify inner conflict about healing • Detoxification • 12 step support?
Rapid Elimination of Craving • Assess the level of commitment to resolving craving? • If denial issues prevail, pursue these first • If the self-esteem issues prevent commitment to pursuit of craving, pursue this
Rapid Elimination of Craving • Reduce intensity of the craving drive • If the nature of the source for the craving drive is unknown pursue rapid insight Reduce intensity of the craving drive
Rapid Elimination of Craving • If the person is currently craving and wants immediate relief • MDEM use for rapid relief • Use photo assessment technique to precisely resonate wavelength of light with craving state to extinguish craving immediately
Rapid Elimination of Craving • If the origin is known to be a trauma use MDEM for rapid relief of trauma • Activate the craving state and then resonate wavelength of light to the craving to extinguish craving
Rapid Elimination of Craving • To pursue long-term relief of the addictive drive and affect regulation in general, correct dysfunctional attachment pattern through the following means: • MDEM use for rapid relief • Resolve specific attachment event • Resolve attachment specific relationships
