Body-Centered Psychotherapy at Princeton Integrative Heath

For those who have found that talk therapy is not enough, or who believe that the body and mind are essentially one, The Rubenfeld Synergy Method of body-centered psychotherapy may be just what the doctor ordered.

The Rubenfeld Synergy Method is an elegant, powerful system for the dynamic integration of body, mind, emotion and spirit. It is a powerful, non-invasive therapy that combines talk, gentle touch and movement. The method respects the uniqueness of each individual, and puts clients in charge of finding their own inner wisdom and healing.

This method offers exciting prospects to: deal with and resolve painful issues and experiences; increase body-mind awareness; gain inner peace and calm; recover from physical or emotional traumas; explore where emotions are held in the body; and explore memories, emotions and thoughts that have awaited self expression.

Patti McDougall, BSN, PRS, Integrative  RN at Princeton Integrative Health was trained and certified by Ilana Rubenfeld, the founder of the program.

News Briefs
Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
