About OEI
When words don't work, sometimes the therapist needs to use your eyes to have a conversation with your body.
Observed & Experiential Integration (OEI) is a powerful set of procedures that can be integrated with other forms of treatment including body therapies, neurotherapy, gestalt & enactment, cognitive, couples, play, and art therapy.
Trainees should either be psychologists, counsellors, social workers, or psychiatrists; or graduate students in those professions.
