Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)
Heal old wounds and find your hidden power.
Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Therapy (AEDP) helps people take their difficult experiences and emotions and use them as opportunities for personal growth. Developed by Dr. Diana Fosha, AEDP focuses on people feeling their emotions in a safe place with a trusted therapist. Because we tend to push away difficult emotions—which are keys to our emotional health—this practice is very powerful and unlocks the door to deep healing.
As clients engage in this transformative process, they awaken to a profound understanding of their inner world, gaining insights that fuel their personal development. This newfound awareness not only promotes healing but also empowers individuals to harness their emotions as a source of strength and wisdom. Once that path is revealed, they can use its power to navigate and heal new experiences and difficult emotions that may come up with resilience and ease. Moreover, AEDP provides the tools necessary to rebuild self-esteem and foster a sense of ongoing positivity and satisfaction.
AEDP is useful for a wide range of problems and leads people to become more confident and joyful. Relationships, careers, anxiety, and depression all benefit from this therapy through the long term. As individuals continue to practice AEDP, they cultivate emotional intelligence, enabling them to approach life's challenges with renewed vigor and optimism.

What are the differences between AEDP and EMDR?
Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) are therapeutic approaches addressing trauma differently. AEDP creates a safe environment for clients to explore emotions, transforming trauma into personal growth. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation, like eye movements, to desensitize and reprocess traumatic memories. AEDP focuses on emotional healing and the therapist-client relationship, while EMDR is structured and targets how memories are stored. Both therapies aim for healing and resilience, with AEDP fostering self-awareness and EMDR focusing on memory processing.
AEDP Sessions in Houston
AEDP sessions with Liliane Nahas in Houston provide a healing-oriented, body-focused approach to therapy, drawing from the principles of affective neuroscience and attachment theory. As a member of the AEDP Institute, I integrate these evidence-based methods to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can experience profound personal growth and healing.
In my private clinical practice, I use moment-to-moment tracking to guide the therapeutic process, fostering a deep connection and helping clients navigate their emotional landscapes. By focusing on "Undoing Aloneness," a core concept in AEDP, I ensure that clients feel deeply understood and supported as they work through challenges. This approach empowers individuals to build resilience, strengthen emotional awareness, and achieve lasting transformation. Whether you're seeking individual therapy or support for relationship challenges, AEDP can be a transformative path toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. Contact Me Today To Schedule
