CorMorphosis™ Psychotherapy

At Wellspring Counselling, lasting transformation requires more than surface-level insights. It necessitates a psychotherapy that works directly with the deep, implicit memories shaping your emotions, relationships, and sense of self. That’s why we offer CorMorphosis™ — an approach that changes maladaptive subconscious patterns into adaptive, growth-promoting ones through embodied experiential techniques and transformational processing via implicit memory reconsolidation.

What is CorMorphosis™?

CorMorphosis™ is derived from “cor” (Latin for “deep” or “core”) and “morphosis” (Greek for “transformation” or “change”). It represents deep, core-level transformation in psychotherapy. CorMorphosis™ Therapy focuses on:

Experiential & Embodied Processing – Using enactment, embodied engagement, and lived experience to facilitate psychological change.
Implicit Memory Transformation – Addressing deep-seated patterns through reprocessing of early and unconscious experiences.
Adaptive Change – Encouraging the development of more adaptive ways of thinking, feeling, and being through targeted therapeutic interventions.

The name CorMorphosis™ reflects the core philosophy of this approach: facilitating profound, lasting transformation by working directly with experiential, embodied, and implicit memory-based processes in psychotherapy.

CorMorphosis™ focuses on implicit memory—the unconscious, automatic emotional and relational patterns that influence daily experiences. These patterns often result from past events and remain unexamined, yet they play a significant role in current challenges.

Through CorMorphosis™, simulated experiences and experiential processes are engaged to activate and transform these implicit memories. They make maladaptive patterns accessible, and adaptive CorMorphosis™ facilitates profound emotional and relational change.

Why Choose CorMorphosis™?

Unlike therapies focusing on intellectual insight or analysis, CorMorphosis™ engages your body, emotions, and lived experiences. It transforms these implicit patterns to more adaptive and constructive ways of being, integrating past, present, and future in a holistic, embodied manner.

Key Features of CorMorphosis™ Include:

Maladaptive to Adaptive Transformation: CorMorphosis™ works directly with implicit memories, shifting old, maladaptive patterns into healthier, adaptive responses.
Embodied Experiential Techniques: CorMorphosis™ incorporates embodied simulations to activate and process implicit memories, fostering real-time emotional transformation.
Implicit Memory Reconsolidation: CorMorphosis™ facilitates change at the deepest levels, where relational and emotional patterns are stored, enabling lasting transformation.
Experiential Engagement: Simulated experiences and active engagement bring therapy to life, creating immediate, felt change opportunities.
Core Needs Fulfillment: Many struggles arise from unmet core needs. CorMorphosis™ identifies and addresses these needs within the therapeutic process, leading to greater fulfillment.

Why CorMorphosis™ is Different

Testimonials

Mr. Gordon is someone that captures the spirit and the heart of active engagement. He is empathic, genuine and incorporates action and creative problem solving into his practice. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Gordon as an effective career and personal counsellor.

NA

I had no experience with therapy and was unsure of the whole process. Alistair made everything very accessible and unintimidating. It was clear that he puts quite a lot of effort and preparation into every session. I'm so glad that I decided to do this, and could not have asked for a better person to help me with this. I would highly recommend Alistair to anyone who has ever thought that they might benefit from talking to a professional.

EH

I am a young professional which for a long time now, has struggled with anxiety, insecurity, and difficulty in finding effective life coping mechanisms. Alistair was referred to me by a friend and upon the first meeting, I found Alistair to be empathetic, compassionate and intuitive. I have now been seeing Alistair regularly for 6 months and through that time my anxiety has significantly decreased, I have found effective methods of dealing with stress, found support dealing with identity issues, as well as finding inner strength to get through a tough break up. Alistair again and again, went the extra mile -thank you Alistair for your candor, openness and a safe space to get support. Thank you for playing such a large role in keeping me healthy and positive.

I have been working with Alistair Gordon as my counsellor at Wellspring for almost 6 months now and cannot begin to tell you how far I have come with his help. I have tried working with other counsellors and therapists in the past but never really found one that clicked for me. I always felt judged, unsupported, and rushed at those appointments until I booked my first appointment with Wellspring and with Allistair. To anyone on the fence about booking an appointment or engaging in therapy: if you are willing to do the work, you couldn't ask for a better partner in your healing journey.

ER

When I decided to find a counsellor, I tried to find someone that I could relate to, someone that is like-minded and down-to-earth and with Alistair I really found the right person. He uses an integrative approach, showed me techniques to relax and get aware of my emotions, and helped me see things in a new perspective. Of course this is an ongoing process but I enjoy meeting and working with Alistair every time. The downtown office is a very neutral place - not too intimate, not too clinical - which is helpful to overcome apprehension, especially the first couple of times. What I find remarkable is that Alistair almost always knows what I'm trying to say, even if I can't put it into words. Working with Alistair helped me a lot and it was the right decision to put my trust in him.

MA

Alistair really cares about you the person, and I could really feel him trying to tackle my challenges. He was also very available for off-session contact via text and email. I think he did a great job with confronting me where I needed it. Alistair always could remember the important peoples' names in my personal life, which really helped with talking about my problems. I really felt like I was talking to a friend.
