IADC Therapy
Induced After Death Communication Sessions
Healing the Heartbreak of Loss with IADC Therapy
The pain of losing a loved one can be overwhelming and long-lasting. You may find yourself yearning for one last conversation, a chance to say goodbye, or simply to know they are at peace. If traditional grief therapy hasn’t brought the closure you seek, IADC (Induced After Death Communication) therapy could offer a path toward reconnection with a loved one you’ve lost, finding peace, and moving forward in life.
What is IADC Therapy?
Induced After Death Communication, or IADC, is a new therapy for grief. This innovative therapy has been demonstrated over the past 30+ years to significantly help grieving individuals dramatically reduce the deep sadness and trauma often associated with the death of someone important to them.
Pioneered in 1995 by former Veteran’s Administration psychologist Dr. Allan Botkin, it’s an adaptation of some of the protocols from a powerfully effective, evidence-based trauma therapy known as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
Dr. Botkin named this method Induced After Death Communication® or IADC® because, in addition to effectively reducing the suffering and trauma of loss, it has the potential to create a state of mind whereby a healing connection with the deceased may occur. This is referred to as an “after-death communication” or ADC.
Why Choose IADC Therapy?
Many of my clients who are grieving have spoken of their desires to reconnect with their loved ones.
“If only I could see her one more time.”
“If only I could tell him that I love him.”
“I just want to know if she’s okay.”
“If only I knew he forgave me.” “If only . . .”
This sense of disconnection from the deceased is often at the core of their sadness and despair, along with the desire to complete “unfinished business.” Yet the intense sadness and trauma felt by the grieving individual often interferes with the very connection the mourner yearns for. IADC® therapy helps to overcome this.
Benefits of IADC Therapy
Extensive research over 30+ years shows IADC to be highly effective. Clients who undergo successful IADC Therapy report:
- A significant reduction of the sadness and grief associated with the death of a loved one.
- Resolution of any unsettled issues in the relationship with the deceased.
- Feeling reassured of their loved one’s well-being.
- Perhaps most meaningfully, a deep sense of nearness once again with their loved one and a transformation in feelings of separation.
IADC Sessions: What to Expect
IADC Therapy generally involves two 90-minute sessions on two consecutive days. That is a total of three hours.
- The first day’s focus is on using the modified protocol of EMDR Therapy techniques to rapidly reduce the intense anguish, trauma, and “unfinished business” frequently accompanying loss.
- On the second day, through the IADC techniques, we cultivate a calm, receptive state. Here, most clients sense a deep and loving connection with their deceased loved one through one or more of the five senses sight, sound, touch, or an overall sense-of-presence perception. This provides a profoundly comforting reconnection – the after-death communication.
We will be doing intensive, emotional, and focused work together, supported by the training that I completed. The fee is $275, which includes both sessions, payable upon booking once the screening call is complete.
