Lynn Faust Cohen
My name is Lynn Faust Cohen. I am a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience. I specialize in EMDR working exclusively with trauma and grief. My approach is multifaceted. You will become aware of what is alive in you in present time by delving deeply into your thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations.
My method is a combination of different therapies mainly EMDR that combines cognitive behavioral, somatic, deep listening, focusing, and also the flash technique if needed.
This experience is transformative and will help you to move and change traumatic memories, grief and anxiety. We will take this path together creating trust and a deeper sense of your own ability to navigate unknown territory. I will be fully present without judgement, since I believe that most of us are very hard on ourselves. Self compassion and acceptance is part of our process always allowing whatever needs to come up to surface and then healing happens. This healing transforms your pain into “love” and you become a more spacious and accepting person. Come join me on this journey of exploration and transformation an adventure that will change your life.
First session
In our first session we will dive into your needs and goals for therapy by connecting deeply. We will begin right away to do EMDR.
Strengths
My intuition, skill, presence and love of what I do are my biggest strengths I enjoy this process of joining clients in discovering what always seems to be more joy, love and spaciousness in their lives.
Ideal clients
Those asking for help with trauma or grief and interested in evidenced based therapy that has positive outcomes for over 80 percent of clients. You will not be doing talk therapy and will get skills that you can use on your own. You will heal quickly by changing the invasive thoughts and learning to quiet your mind.
Treatment methods
EMDR
EMDR is amazing and you will heal quickly by learning this skillset. We begin with a thought that goes into a feeling then a sensation and back to a thought. We embody our traumas little ones and big ones and "our body knows the score" , so in the sensation is the healing and this flow of thought, feeling, sensation is a process that moves trauma from overwhelming to manageable.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Together we honor all feelings and welcome the genuine expression of whatever is in your heart. Those feelings are the precious expression of who you are and are not diagnosed or interpreted.
Jungian
Dreams are welcome in our time together. I studied Jungian dream analysis in Zurich, Switzerland.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS is instrumental to Trauma work and we see the parts of you that are exiled or protective. We welcome those parts in order to understand your experiences. This helps the healing process because there are parts of you that are not traumatized and can bring us to a deeper understanding of who you are and what it takes to integrate all of you.
