Complex trauma, somatoform dissociations & energetics therapy

Abstract

IntroductionMental health professionals find it very challenging to provide counselling and therapy when confronted with disclosures of ritual, satanic and extreme abuse. Psychometric and muscle testing can facilitate diagnosis and healing in this context. Psychiatrists of renown such as David Hawkins and Colin Ross have embraced and written about energetic medicine in their practice.ObjectivesThe presentation explains how somatoform dissociations are tell-tale indications of abuse and neglect of early childhood trauma and how ‘Energetics’ therapy facilitates healing.AimsDelegates will learn to recognise somatoform dissociation symptoms, understand advances and limitations of psychometric assessment tools, appreciate energetics approaches as an adjunct to other intervention methods and gain an insight into the origins of complex trauma.MethodsTwo case studies are used to illustrate causes, impact, diagnosis and healing of complex trauma.ResultsA set of psychometric assessments helped to unravel a chilling revictimisation crime series. ‘Twice Exceptional’ characteristics were very high IQ coupled with Dyslexia, very weak auditory memory and psychic capabilities. In another case that stemmed from extreme abuse of ancient, commercial and high-tech varieties muscle testing and energetics therapy lead to a remarkable recovery.ConclusionsPsychometric and muscle testing can inform diagnosis, therapy and healing. Energetics can be used to bring about profound healing for those who have repressed severe trauma. This method has many advantages in that parts of it are easily learned, it is non-invasive, has no side effects, gives patients control over their reactions, eliminates triggers and offers healing.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.
