HT (Havening Techniques) also called ADT(Amygdala Depotentiation Therapy)

HT is excellent for de-traumatising Trauma, Shock, Phobias, Deep Fears - far quicker than previously imaginable.

It is a psycho-sensory therapy - ie it utilises psychological & sensory input. This includes visualization, distraction & light touch, to remove the emotional content from a traumatic memory.

The distractions and visualizations takes the cognitive mind away from the trauma, the light touch creates delta brainwaves leading to the chemical changes in the mind.

“When an event / experience is perceived as traumatic or very stressful, it becomes immutably encoded, often with life-altering consequences.

However, recent research, from the field of Neuroscience, has shown us how it is possible to modify this encoding.

Havening Techniques (HT) are methods which are designed to change the brain to de-traumatise the memory and

permanently remove it’s negative effects from both our psyche and body.”

~ Dr. Ronald Ruden

(HT) Havening Techniques®️ Frequently Asked Questions
BETTER LIVING THROUGH NEUROSCIENCE

"Havening Techniques engages our inherent biological system to permanently heal, strengthen and empower our minds and bodies." Ronald A. Ruden M.D.,Ph.D. The Havening Techniques (HT) have been developed by the Ronald A. Ruden M.D.,Ph.D. and along with his brother Steven J. Ruden, D.D.S., ICF/ACC. (HT) are powerful tools that can be used to alleviate the consequences of traumatic or stressful events. Havening or Delta Techniques™ is a method which is designed to change the brain to de-traumatize the memory and remove its negative effects from both our psyche and body. These techniques have been developed & refined since 2001. The first official training occurred May 2013 in the UK. Now we have grown and spread to all corners of the world.

What is Havening?
The Havening Techniques are healing modalities designed to help individuals overcome problems that are the consequence of traumatic or stressful encoding. They belong to a larger group of methods called psychosensory therapies, which use sensory input to alter thought, mood and behavior. The system is comprised of protocols and methods that use touch as a therapeutic tool we call Havening Touch®. This touch generates a delta wave in the brain and as a consequence we also refer to Havening Techniques as Delta Techniques™. Havening can be used within a psycho-therapeutic setting with professional mental health-care clinicians who have been fully trained and certified in the Havening Techniques. These techniques can also be used by non-licensed and /or allied health care professionals as a protocol for coaching, wellness and stress reduction.

Is Havening Permanent?
It’s not possible to provide any guarantees but once Havening is successful it has shown to be permanent in most cases. This is because Havening is believed to alter the biological structure of the brain. The return of symptoms implies either the traumatic core has not yet been found or the problem has been encoded in a different way. In particular, addictive & obsessive/compulsive behaviors, certain pain syndromes and vasovagal (e.g.fainting) issues often need reinforcement or cannot be treated with the Havening Techniques at the present time. No therapy works for all problems, but Havening is demonstrating that it’s possible to successfully treat disorders that have not been resolved by western medicine. Although the Havening Techniques appear to have promising emotional, mental, and physical health benefits, they have yet to be fully researched by the Western academic, medical, and psychological communities and, therefore may be considered experimental. The Havening Techniques are self-regulated and they are considered alternative or complementary healing methods in the United States.

What Types of Problems Can Havening be Used for?
The consequences of traumatic encoding can be physical and psychological.

Havening has been shown to help with:

-Phobias

-Chronic pain

-Distressing memories (broken relationships, shocking news, loss,

embarrassment, etc.)

-Victims of natural disasters (hurricanes, floods, etc.) and man-made (war,

fire, assault,home intrusion, etc.)

-Anger

-Fear of abandonment

-Stress

-Self Esteem

-Cravings

-PTSD

-Panic attacks

-Sexual abuse

-Performance enhancement

-Public speaking

-Sports

-Emotional eating

Facilitating the Havening Training, Dublin, March 6-7 2019. Steven Ruden, Anna Casey, Stephen Travers

“Havening, also known as Amygdala Depotentiation Therapy (ADT) is going to change the face of therapy across the world.
What used to take months to cure can now be done in minutes in most cases: PTSD, trauma, pain, depression and many more disorders. The initial study recently completed by King’s College London shows the remarkable effectiveness of this extraordinary set of processes. This is not to be confused with other psycho-sensory techniques, TFT, EMDR, etc. Whilst they are very good, Havening is light years ahead. If you want to be an excellent therapist, you can’t afford not to learn this breakthrough approach.” –

Paul McKenna, Ph.D.
