What is Gentle Reprocessing™
Gentle Reprocessing™ is a complete therapy made up of a unique integration of guided imagery, drawing, story telling, inner child work, cognitive therapy and EMDR components, among other proven therapies. It is designed to gently and rapidly dissolve trauma symptoms that prevent clients from living fully.

Gentle Reprocessing™ reduces symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression, OCD, phobias, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and dissociation. Additionally, this practice has been used with success for performance enhancement and anger control.
During its conception two distinct approaches, “internal” and “external”, were developed. The Internal approach worked well for most adults to release traumas and mental health symptoms. It used metaphors and inner child work to protect the clients from the pain of their traumas while these traumas were released. The External approach was developed for children as young as 2 ½ and has been shown to work well with fragile adult clients such as war veterans and rape victims. External Gentle Reprocessing uses drawing and story telling to gently release trauma.
This therapy has been patiently and caringly refined since its 1999 inception in private practice outside Boston. Slowly, select psychotherapists were introduced to this approach. Over 600 clinicians now have been trained in Gentle Reprocessing and report positive outcomes. With this added corroboration, the “Gentle” body of work has steadily grown from its origins of limited anecdotal evidence to now helping heal thousands of clients worldwide.
Gentle Reprocessing™ has a continuously growing number of psychotherapists using it in both private practices and community agencies. Gentle Reprocessing has been presented at national and international conferences, and has been taught in accredited workshops in New Mexico and at Boston University, as well as at other New England sites.
