Dr. Gloria Payne of Meridian Counseling Center Recognized by CUTV News

Dade City, FL, October 28, 2015 (Newswire.com) - There remains a social stigma attached to therapy that prevents many people from seeking help. For individuals who have suffered traumatic experiences – individuals most likely to benefit from counseling services – this reluctance is compounded by therapy modalities that ask them to relive their traumatic experiences. 

According to therapist Dr. Gloria Payne, trained therapists can now address these issues with a new powerful yet profoundly respectful modality known as Rapid Resolution Therapy. Dr. Payne is a master-level certified Rapid Resolution Therapist and the founder of The Meridian Counseling and Wellness Center, where she offers traditional cognitive behavioral therapy as well as innovative, holistic methods of healing.

When people continue to experience anxiety and depression and fear associated with a traumatic experience, it consumes energy the body could be using for healing

“Our bodies and minds aren’t separate. When people continue to experience anxiety and depression and fear associated with a traumatic experience, it consumes energy the body could be using for healing,” says Dr. Payne. “Our bodies are designed to heal if we can remove that interference.”

While cognitive behavioral therapy has become synonymous with therapy itself, there are problems that are rooted in the mind that traditional CBT cannot reach. If a patient who has experienced trauma wants to think, feel or behave differently, this cannot be adequately addressed strictly through CBT because CBT only works with our conscious mind.

“Unless we can access the subconscious programming that is trying to protect us, we can’t resolve our issues,” says Dr. Payne. “Rapid Resolution Therapy is about recognizing where someone is struggling on a deeper subconscious level."

Dr. Payne says Rapid Resolution Therapy is an excellent method for eliminating the negative effect our past experiences continue to have on our emotions, behavior and even our physical health. Perhaps most importantly, Rapid Resolution Therapy is respectful of the client’s privacy.

Dr. Payne’s experience in Rapid Resolution Therapy is rivaled only by its founder, Dr. Jon Connelly. Today, Dr. Payne is an associate trainer of Rapid Resolution Therapy for professionals who specialize in trauma, anxiety and multi-faceted emotional and physical issues.

Says Dr. Payne. “To watch my clients go from feeling like they can’t handle life to smiling and thriving and believing is truly thrilling.”
