Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)

Accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy (AEDP) is talk therapy, developed by American psychologist Diana Fosha, to deal with trauma and loss. It draws on cross-discipline theory and research, including attachment theory, body-focused approaches, interpersonal neurobiology, emotion theory, and affective neuroscience. AEDP helps us process painful experiences by uncovering difficult emotions, identifying/processing defenses, developing new coping skills and restoring trust, and becoming more comfortable with our emotions.
