Testimonials

“Rewind changed my whole second pregnancy. After a hard birth with my first child I realised whilst pregnant with my second child that I was experiencing trauma symptoms… after my Rewind session I felt more peaceful, calm and clear headed about my next birth and was able to talk about my first birth without alarm and emotion.” – Client B

“Three days after my Rewind session I realised that my traumatic thoughts now felt more like a movie that I’d watched rather than me re-experiencing the trauma.  It was a powerful change for me and helped me to recover from the event.” – Client S

“After witnessing a traumatic event, I experienced panic attacks and flashbacks.  Rewind helped me to process the event and stop the panic and flashbacks within three sessions.  It was incredible!” – Client T

REWIND THERAPY

Rewind therapy is a technique used in the treatment of trauma. Traumatic memories can trigger flashbacks, panic attacks, nightmares, loss of appetite and physical pain. These memories tend to ‘float’ around our brain and come into focus when we neither want nor expect them.  Rewind is a brief therapy aimed at getting these memories back into the ‘filing cabinet’ of our brain. It is used in a safe environment where the client does not need to talk about the traumatic event – ‘Closure without disclosure’. This technique was developed out of work with veterans coming back from war zones with PTSD. It is now widely used with various trauma issues including traumatic birth, sexual, physical and domestic abuse, traumatic accidents and vicarious (seen, reported or 3rd party experience of) trauma too. 

At Invicta we have much experience of using this technique and seeing the powerful changes that can take place.  It can be used as an integral part of counselling or as a stand alone brief intervention in treatment for trauma.
