What is the IVP Protocol?

The IVP (Imagination, Visual, Presence) Protocol is a unique therapeutic approach designed to help clients address various mental health issues in a safe and controlled environment.

This innovative protocol guides clients through a gradual process of exposure to triggers, allowing them to process negative emotions and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

The IVP Protocol is structured in three stages:

• Imagination: Therapist and client work together to identify the core challenge. The therapist then guides the client in creating a vivid mental image of a situation that triggers negative emotions. Techniques like Gestalt dialogue help explore associated thoughts and feelings. EMDR is used to process the emotional response.

• Visual: A visual representation of the challenge is identified, This could be a picture, object, or even a description. Generative AI creates personalized images to enhance the experience. Clients explore their reactions to the visual trigger and process them through EMDR.

• Presence (Optional): For suitable cases, virtual reality (VR) is used to create a realistic and immersive simulation of the triggering situation. The therapist guides the client through the VR experience, incorporating EMDR techniques. After the VR experience, the therapist helps the client process emotions and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

How Does it Work?

• Tailored Approach: The IVP protocol is adaptable to various mental health conditions and is customized to each client's specific needs.

• Gradual Exposure: Clients progress through the stages at a comfortable pace, ensuring they feel safe and in control.

• Empowerment: The IVP protocol equips clients with the tools to manage their emotions, overcome challenges, and improve their overall well-being.
