United Kingdom
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 4 พ.ค. 2020
We are Vega Therapy is bringing accessible & usable therapy to you. This is an alternative to regular therapy where we do things differently. We’re demystifying trauma, attachment & anxiety, & providing affordable resources for people who don't have access to therapy. We’ll teach you how to tune in & listen to what your body is telling you, helping you understand how past experiences shape your life.
Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a body centred therapy, showing you how you're affected and what works to settle anxiety and manage your nervous system. Regaining control over your responses and behaviours allows you to feel more confident and build your resilience, so no matter what life throws at you, you'll feel ready.
When you learn how to trust your instincts and not be thrown by what your head tells you, you'll break negative cycles. When you have a better relationship with yourself, you'll see a big improvement in the relationship you have with others, and with your body.

‘Do I Need Medication For Trauma?’ | Catriona Morten
In this video we look at the different treatments for trauma and when medication is appropriate. We explore the pitfalls, and what else we can use to not have to just rely on medication.
Often people don't know the best thing to do and are often told medication is the only solution. We don't believe this to be true, there are many other things we can do to help our traumatised nervous system.

The Conflict Wounds of Trauma | Catriona Morten

Thank you❤. Great information. So easy to listen to and understand.
Thank you❤. Very helpful content.
Exactly
❤I totally agree
I find if they are not changing the negative cognition isn't strong enough, its actually another word, a similar word but a more emotionally charged word for that person
❤❤❤ I wish you had given a guest lecture in my counseling program’s trauma class! So practical. I don’t know if I’ve ever heard it broken down like that before. Thank you!
You are beyond helpful. I love your content and the way you explain things. Thank you!
Then youll get idiots who say "well who set that system up"
Thank you, please keep making videos
Very enlightening as always, many thanks!
Thanks for the tips! ❤
Hi, I’m interested that you associate going out the top of the windows with dissociation. I have usually seen dissociation associated with the bottom of the window. I’m keen to nuance my understanding, so could you say more? Thanks
That is very helpful! Thank you! 🌸
Thanks for the important info ❤
Sounds excellent
Who did you train with? Sensimotor Psychotherapy Institute or Janina Fisher’s Certified Clinical Trauma Professional training? Thank you for sharing :)
My therapist wants to do EMDR with me, but she says I dissociate too much, so we are kind of working on that... maybe when I'm ready I can work on my self-compassion with the help of EMDR
Thank you very much.❤️... Hello kitty.👋🏻🐱
Thank you so much.♥️
Thank you, Catriona! I have been watching your videos and they are helping me stay calm during a very anxious and scary time in my life after many traumas, a hysterectomy and starting my journey with EMDR. You are a blessing!
Promises promises... Doesn't give practical examples. She is just selling her service. Bottom line: she wants you to pay for her services.
EMDR is amazing. I was able to remember what happened to me at 3 years old.
5:44 she says it's a little bit brutal, but when I started, I was prepared that I was going to go to that point in time, so I was prepared. I was in control. I could stop at any time. Unlike flashbacks where they appear suddenly, and because I'm caught off guard, it's hard to stop it. I think that's one good reason to have a counselor with you and not do this on your own. They are watching you and I think if my physical response got high, she would interrupt with questions. Because I don't ever remember thinking "this is brutal". EMDR really helped me stop the flashbacks. 💕🌞🌵😷
Thank you. Overuse or misuse of Medical or psychological terms destroys them over time.
Tq😊
Absolutely, at a certain point (if one is stuck) it can be extremely helpful to experience the power that comes from taking responsibility, becoming more resourced, and experiencing the joys of self-efficacy and confidence
❤ Thank you very much
Hello, we have DID and value your content and time. We hope it’s ok to feedback that we find the split screen format a bit distracting - appreciate everyone is different and wondered if there is an accessibility need we are missing that leads you to present in this style? Thanks again for your work in this field
Thank you. When i was very young i had a really bad experience. Nobody involved remembers anymore. I still do. And when i speak about it i still cry. I am close to 40 and it still bring me to tears.
Thankyou so much for this video.. so much of positive energy.. Much love ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much! 💙
Your videos are great 👍 you are definitely the only one I’m aware of that offers practical solutions. Thank you for your work.
thank you for this clear description!!!
Thanks so much! It gives me some understanding of what my body has gone through. It's been difficult not to blame others for the triggers that I have experienced. Not realizing that this was not a universal experience that I shared with others. The overview this video provides has helped me to see my situation differently. Thanks so much!
I have to ask: is "Veganism" a central theme of this channel? ...
Not at all! This channel is mainly around Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, trauma & attachment, & mental health. We named after the star ‘Vega’ 🙂
I’m only just coming into full awareness now in my 40s…after my father died coincidentally. It’s making so much sense of questions I’ve had and couldn’t verbalise
Wonderful video.💎 I appreciate all your videos and the warm, insightful way you explain things simply and clearly. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers this is a gem of a channel.💎It's helped and consoled me alot.😊
Can you talk about DPDR?
Excellent content ❤
Wow thank you so much! These techniques worked for me 😊
When i did my second round of adanced emdr 2.0. I woke up and lost all memory before 19 years old. I woke up from a dream with a new name and a new me. Taxed so much working memeory and im okay with that. I look at photos of myself as a child and dont recognise myself and my sister will occasionally talk about a tramatic memory and i just have no memory of it. Still think advanaced flash technqique and emdr 2.0 was the best thing i ever did. All the somatic work i did though brought up all the my childhood stuff. I had a inplicit memeory come up all the way from the original attachment trauma, i was a baby crying in a cot wanting to be picked up, i felt that pain and was able to cry with it and hold it compassionatly. ❤
This is really helpfull currently working with a lot of resistance. I love to hear the way you work.
what a load of rubbish
I'm not sure if I have D.I.D. or not but I definitely suffer from dissociating. It has presented in different ways for me throughout the years. I was abused in several ways growing up, particularly S. A. from age 6 to 14. I remember in highschool I would spend as much time as I could in my head talking to someone named Thomas. This is strange to me because I'm not a very creative person, I've never been good at playing imaginary games like dress up or house. I also had family inside my head, a dad and a mom that dont exist in real life. I spoke to those individuals until I was about 20. Ever since I was 18 I noticed that anytime I felt anxious my voice would change and it felt strange, I would speak with a voice that felt unrecognizable to me. Sometimes I would act like a young child and I felt so embarrassed by it but I didn't know how to stop myself or I would speak uncontrollably to people, talking a lot. I've noticed more that whenever something very stressful happens, I get a brain fog afterward. For example, if I go to a job interview or a therapy session I have to make sure to write everything down in a notebook during the conversation otherwise I forget what we spoke about. I also have to set alarms for anything important otherwise I will forget to do it. I also don't remember much of my childhood except the traumatic parts. A lot of my childhood memories are completely missing.
❤🙏
Brilliant
Brilliant! Thank you❤
It sounds like she loves Christmas and the therapist is trying to let her know that Christmas got those commercial hyper things up that might make people couldn’t feel her love that she is pouring her complete body into; I kinda feel the girls want to celebrate Christmas as a kid but also feel that the experience might feel very culturally framed and stagnant
Wow the demonstration about Christmas is very interesting and extremely heart warming to watch
How does one know they are doing better for these types of patients
