Dr. Rey Junco is a trauma therapist in Concord, MA. Dr. Junco specializes in working with high achieving people who have experienced trauma, especially those who haven’t had much success with other therapies. He also works with people who are struggling with narcissistic abuse, insomnia, phobias, technology addiction, and/or a feeling that something is not quite right. What is different about the way that Dr. Junco works is that he is results-oriented and able to help you get better quickly using evidence-based therapy techniques.
Sessions with Dr. Junco are warm and welcoming and include a combination of talk therapy and proven techniques like EMDR. This approach supports clients' ability to heal from their trauma. Dr. Junco's clients see improvements in their relationships, reconnect with a stronger and more confident sense of self, and recover the ability to feel joy.
Dr. Junco trained in both the clinical and counseling psychology programs at Penn State University, was a fellow for nearly a decade at Harvard University, and taught at Oxford University. Dr. Junco's research has been featured in major media outlets such as The New York Times, The Atlantic, Time, CNN, and NPR. He is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) along with talk therapy models such as psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, and DBT. In addition to his academic training, Dr. Junco is a survivor of childhood trauma and Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD).
Years of Experience: 22 years
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) - In addition to talk therapy for PTSD, I am trained in EMDR and ART. EMDR is a psychotherapy treatment that uses either eye movements or bilateral tactile or auditory stimulation to help a person heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of traumatic life experiences. ART is a newer evidence-based treatment for a number of conditions including PTSD, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, addiction, low self image, job-related stress, grief, OCD, phobias, cutting, and others.
Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) - I can help you recover from the impact of long-term, repeated traumatic events, such as emotional abuse and neglect in childhood. I use a combination of EMDR, ART, IFS, Polyvagal Theory, and psychodynamic therapy to help you heal from long-standing and repeated traumas.
Narcissistic Abuse - Narcissistic abuse is a type of emotional abuse perpetrated by an abuser who has an inflated sense of self and only cares about themselves. Using evidence-based techniques, I help clients regain their sense of self-worth, set healthy boundaries, and develop strategies to cope with the effects of the abuse. We may also address any underlying trauma and work towards rebuilding a stronger and healthier sense of self.
Insomnia & sleep issues - I am certified in CBT-I. CBT-I is a first-line approach for insomnia and has been proven to be effective, more so than medication, with many different types of insomnia. Research shows that CBT-I produces clinical improvement in 75% of those suffering from insomnia both in the short term and at several year follow-ups. In fact, CBT-I is more effective at treating insomnia than CBT is at treating depression and anxiety. I was trained in CBT-I by Dr. Gregg D. Jacobs, the developer of the therapy.
Technology Addiction - I am a pioneer in the research field on the psychological impact of social technologies and devices on adolescents and young adults. I have published books and articles in highly-ranked peer-reviewed journals and have translated that research into effective therapeutic methods. Technology addiction therapy involves working with parents and the affected child in order to bring better balance to the child’s technology use.
