摘要

Awareness Integration Therapy (AIT) had been documented as a multi-modality psychotherapeutic approach to improve self-awareness, dissolve past traumas and psychological blocks, and cultivate adaptive thinking conducive to learning how to improve self efficiency. The present report highlights the objective neurophysiological outcomes of AIT in a case study. The AIT-recipient was a 28 year-old Filipino female living in Dubai, UAE who presented with relationship-based concerns and anxiety-related symptoms. Over a single-session AIT, the real-time neurobiomarkers were tracked multimodally using established neurophysiological diagnostics. The study also used a 21-channel qEEG (pre-post), focused transcranial Doppler (fTCD) screening, and real-time autonomic nervous system (ANS) biosignal monitoring. Additionally, qualitative subjective outcomes of AIT were assessed for collective analysis. Findings demonstrated that both subjective emotional processing and objective biomarkers of cognitive-affective regulation had a meaningful change during and after the therapeutic intervention. The present case study suggests the viability of using AIT in psychotherapy and encourages its use in future clinical settings, especially when paired with neurophysiological monitoring. Well designed randomized control trials are needed to systematically assess its neurobehavioral substrates in clinical settings.
