AEDP Psychotherapy

There is no better way to capture the ethos of AEDP than to say this: we try to help our patients and ourselves become stronger at the broken places. By working with trauma, loss, and painful consequences, we discover places that have always been strong, places that were never broken.

Undoing Aloneness
Our ‘true self’ emerges by fully experiencing and processing our emotions in the presence of a ‘true other’.
