MAP is a science-based modality that works with the subconscious mind to support mental and emotional healing. During a session, your mind is guided into a calm, relaxed state where our practitioner, Dr. Paquette, uses specific language to help “update” how your brain processes certain memories, beliefs, or patterns.

Rather than needing to consciously figure things out, your subconscious does the work, rewiring old pathways and integrating new, more supportive ones. You remain awake, aware, and responsive throughout the entire process.

Many clients describe MAP as a mental reset, leaving them with more clarity, emotional ease, and a greater sense of forward momentum.

MAP can support anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, or emotional blocks. At Repose MedSpa and Wellness Center, it’s often used to help with:

• Rewiring self-limiting beliefs

• Reframing past experiences, including childhood patterns

• Reducing the emotional charge around difficult memories

• Changing unwanted habits

• Working through fears or phobias

• Managing hypervigilance or overwhelm

• Supporting personal goals like life transitions or career shifts

Some clients also report improvements in chronic physical symptoms connected to stress.

Your first session focuses on what feels most present and important to you, whether that’s a memory, pattern, or emotional block.

Using gentle, guided techniques, many clients experience meaningful relief quickly. A high percentage of people are able to neutralize the emotional charge around a specific memory within a single 90-minute session.

No. You don’t need to retell or re-experience painful details for MAP to work.

You’ll simply bring light awareness to a memory while the work happens at the subconscious level. The focus stays on your present experience, how it feels now and what your system needs to move forward, without re-traumatization.

Yes. MAP integrates well with therapy, somatic work, and other wellness approaches.

It offers a complementary layer that can help process and integrate what you’re already working on, often accelerating progress.

Before your first appointment, you’ll watch a short introductory video (about 12 minutes) to prepare you for the process.

During your session:

• You’ll identify what you want to work on

• You’ll be guided into a relaxed, receptive state

• Dr. Paquette will use precise language to help your subconscious update patterns

• You’ll remain awake and engaged the entire time

Sessions typically last 75–90 minutes, and most clients leave feeling lighter, calmer, and more clear.

MAP sessions are currently offered in-clinic in Dundee. Remote sessions may be available upon request.

MAP is not talk therapy, and it’s not advice-based coaching.

Rather than analyzing situations or trying to “figure things out,” MAP works directly with the subconscious mind, where patterns, beliefs, and emotional responses are stored. Instead of searching for the problem, the process gently allows your inner system to reveal what’s ready to be addressed.

Your subconscious acts as the guide, bringing forward only what you’re prepared to work through, without overthinking or rehashing the past.

For many clients, especially those who feel like they’ve already “talked through” things without lasting change, MAP offers a more direct and often more efficient path to real shifts.

• It often works quickly. Many people feel noticeable relief in just one session

• The process is gentle and empowering

• It blends neuroscience with intuitive techniques

• Changes tend to be long-lasting because they occur at the subconscious level

MAP is a neuroscience-based approach, and it’s helpful to understand what it isn’t:

• It does not require reliving painful experiences in detail

• It is not hypnosis, you remain fully conscious and engaged

• It does not erase memories

Instead, MAP changes how your brain processes those memories, reducing their emotional intensity so they no longer feel triggering or limiting.
