Dodge Rea, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and certified Practitioner of Medical Qigong, approaches therapy with the philosophy that therapists should nurture growth like gardeners, rather than fix problems like mechanics. He emphasizes the innate healing capacity within his clients, offering a sanctuary free from judgment, and employs various techniques, including his own innovations such as the g.r.a.c.e. sequence and Inter-Subjective Somatic Attunement (ISSA). With a background that includes a PsyD from Nova Southeastern University and a clinical internship at Vanderbilt University, Rea founded the Lotus Center in Nashville, TN, and has integrated his work with varied holistic practices. He has been influenced by numerous fields, leading to an approach he terms Integrative Clinical Psychology. Rea, who also enjoys T’ai Chi, meditation, and family life, is currently authoring a book on the g.r.a.c.e. sequence and has served on the board of the Nashville Psychotherapy Institute. His practice is a blend of psychological, somatic, and spiritual elements designed to reconnect individuals to their core self and facilitate deep transformation.
