Overview
A neuropsychology-based, integrative therapy designed to help clients emotionally regulate, reduce anxiety and stress, and restore well-being in life and relationships.
Rooted in the founder’s Neuropsychological Behaviouralism (NPB) theory, EIT guides individuals to acknowledge and process emotions rather than avoiding or becoming overwhelmed by them.
What EIT Offers
A self-paced online program comprising eight modules that teach participants how to calm various brain systems and then integrate them for lasting emotional balance.
Accessible through an online platform, and clients can opt to work with a certified coach or directly with Dr. Marie Filion.
How EIT Differs from Traditional Therapy
From Coping to Resolution
Traditional approaches often focus on managing symptoms. EIT goes beyond that—its aim is to eliminate anxiety and depression at their neurobiological roots.
Three-Tier Integration Model
Tier 1: Brainstem Foundation — Addresses threat detection, arousal regulation, attention filtering, and reward/motivation systems. Initiated through the 6Rs technique.
Tier 2: Limbic Coordination — Balances emotional processing and self-awareness. Helps keep “emotional thinking” below a 40% threshold for clarity.
Tier 3: Cognitive Integration — Fuses executive thinking with emotional insight, enhancing decision-making and resilience.
Measurable Progress
EIT uses objective neurosis scoring rather than subjective self-reporting. Goals typically include reducing neurosis levels to below 40%, ideally aiming for 25–30%.
Science-Backed Foundations
Developed from Dr. Marie Filion’s PhD research in developmental psychology, including a novel “Object Concepts” framework for human-environment relationships.
Recognizes that anxiety and depression are not fixed conditions but alterable brain activation patterns.
Integrates biblical metaphors—like the Parable of the Sower—to explain neuroplasticity and mental receptivity in transformation. “Shalom” (wholeness) is more than spiritual; it’s neurobiological.
Outcomes & Effectiveness
- Internal clinical data shows substantial improvements in emotional well-being, reduced neurotic symptoms, and improved relational health—surpassing traditional CBT outcomes.
- For many active participants, initial change is noticeable within two weeks, with dramatic improvements often occurring within two months.
- Nearly 90% of clients who complete the full program experience significant improvement—especially those without complex trauma.
- For clients with trauma, EIT lays crucial groundwork, making subsequent deeper trauma therapy more effective and lasting.
Training & Delivery Options
Available as a self-paced online course, ideal for flexibility and accessibility.
Clients work with coaches and can be referred to the designer of EIT, Dr. Marie Filion (psychologist) if further therapy is required.
Coaches are extensively trained, meeting weekly to collaborate, refine methods, and share success stories – ensuring a high standard of care and consistent improvements.
