FEELING SAFE IN RELATIONSHIPS

Unconditional Care

At Joya Sagrada Therapy, our program is grounded in the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology, which combines elements from psychology, neuroscience, and relational studies to offer a holistic approach to therapy. Interpersonal Neurobiology is an approach to therapy designed to harness the science of how the brain is influenced by the connections we make with others and ourselves. By exploring the interplay between mind, brain, and relationships, we offer a path towards profound healing and transformation. We focus on how your relationships and experiences shape your brain’s development and functioning, influencing your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. At the heart of our therapy is the therapeutic relationship itself. We use this relationship as a tool to help you understand and reshape your neural pathways, leading to healthier patterns of thinking and relating to others. We incorporate mindfulness and awareness practices to help you become more attuned to your body’s signals, thoughts, and emotions. This enhanced self-awareness fosters self-regulation and a deeper understanding of your mental processes.

INTEGRATING HEALING JOURNEYS

Holistic Integration

We recognize the profound healing potential of guided spiritual journeys, led by shamans, energy workers, and other talented spiritual healers. These deeply personal practices are naturally geared towards uncovering core wounds and blockages, preparing them for their ultimate release. Growth is a beautiful and sometimes challenging process. We bridge the ancient wisdom of guided spiritual healing practices with contemporary therapeutic techniques, offering a comprehensive approach to mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness. To clarify, we do not provide the guided spiritual offerings ourselves. Instead, we offer ongoing supportive and informed spaces for individuals to integrate these valued experiences, maximizing the personal and spiritual growth potential of the processes. Our approach is holistic, taking into account both the psychological and spiritual dimensions of healing. Through one-on-one sessions, we provide guided reflection and processing of your spiritual experiences, helping you to uncover, understand, and integrate the insights and lessons these experiences may hold for your life. Recognizing the importance of intention setting, we assist in the mindful preparation for your journeys, as well as the crucial integration process that follows. This ensures that insights gained can be meaningfully applied to everyday life.

GROWING THROUGH LIFE TRANSITIONS

Developing Insights

Life transitions are significant moments that can profoundly affect an individual's path, impacting people of all ages, ethnicities, professions, and social statuses. Whether these transitions are expected or sudden, positive or challenging, they often necessitate a deep psychological adjustment. At Joya Segrada Therapy we support individuals navigating these pivotal changes, providing professional guidance to foster resilience and promote personal growth. We help individuals process these changes, cope with emotional upheavals, and adjust to new living arrangements and social circles. We use a variety of strategies to help you navigate life transitions. We encourage you to build strong support networks, including family, friends, and community resources. We assist in developing new routines that bring stability and a sense of control. We provide resources and guidance to demystify what to expect during transitions, reducing anxiety and aiding decision-making. Our therapeutic approach involves helping you reflect on your values, beliefs, and goals as you undergo significant life changes. We emphasize assisting you in exploring and reaffirming your identity during transitions as well as developing effective coping strategies, such as mindfulness and relaxation techniques, to enhance your ability to manage stress and adapt to new circumstances. Major life transitions, while challenging, also offer opportunities for growth and development. By engaging with our therapeutic services, you can gain the tools and support needed to navigate these changes effectively, leading to a more fulfilled and balanced life.
