We don’t talk enough about shame — the quiet, physical kind that makes you want to disappear. At Clinic Altera, we call it Shame Jail: the nervous system’s way of protecting connection when it doesn’t feel safe. Learn how therapy can help you understand this part of yourself and gently find your way back into connection.

Nervous system “healing” has become a buzzword, often sold as a quick fix. At Clinic Altera, we take a different approach. Healing isn’t about hacks or one-size-fits-all solutions—it’s about belonging, relationship, and finding steadiness in connection. Through modalities like EMDR, Brainspotting, and psychodynamic therapy, we create space for both body and mind to heal, always held within the safety of a therapeutic relationship.
