To these are added less common life challenges, such as managing a chronic medical condition, handling a psychiatric diagnosis, or coping with a disability, which result in a complete and radical disruption of daily life. The scientific team at Restart is committed to providing the tools and techniques you need to successfully address both common and uncommon problems at every stage of life. Utilizing many contemporary as well as traditional proven methods (coaching, psychotherapy, EMDR, etc.), they offer you over 30 years of experience and a holistic approach that combines coaching, psychotherapy, EMDR, nutrition, and physical fitness improvement, ensuring that no issue remains unsolvable.
