Polyvagal Therapy

What is Polyvagal Therapy?

Polyvagal Therapy is a groundbreaking approach to therapy that is based on Dr. Stephen Porges' Polyvagal Theory. This theory explains how the autonomic nervous system influences our reactions to stress and how we connect with others. Polyvagal Therapy focuses on activating the body's natural relaxation state, the 'ventral vagal state', to foster safety, connection, and well-being. This therapeutic method is particularly effective for addressing issues related to trauma, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation.

How Polyvagal Therapy Helps

Polyvagal Therapy helps individuals by:

Enhancing Emotional Regulation: Teaching techniques to manage and mitigate overwhelming emotional responses.
Promoting a Sense of Safety: Using the body’s nervous system to cultivate feelings of security and calm.
Improving Relationships: Encouraging better communication and deeper emotional connections with others.
Addressing Trauma: Providing a path to recovery by understanding and influencing physiological states.
