Heidi Kling: Transforming Lives with Modern Psychotherapy Techniques

Published

on

Michigan, US, 11th June 2024, ZEX PR WIRE, Heidi Kling, a prominent figure in clinical psychology, leverages her extensive expertise in psychotherapy to facilitate positive changes in the lives of patients and their families. With a profound understanding of attitudes, behaviors, emotions, memories, and thoughts, Heidi utilizes a blend of therapeutic techniques to address and resolve psychological issues effectively.

As a certified life coach, Heidi combines her deep psychological knowledge with life coaching strategies to support individuals in achieving their personal and professional goals. Her holistic approach to mental health care, dedication to patient-centered therapy, and academic contributions make her a highly respected and influential figure in the mental health community.

Psychodynamic Insight Oriented Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis 

Heidi’s psychodynamic approach aims to increase emotional awareness and mindfulness. By exploring the less conscious and unconscious past experiences influencing current behaviors and thoughts, patients can gain insight and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (CBT) 

Heidi employs CBT to help patients identify and rectify distorted interpretations of events. This technique is instrumental in diminishing negative attitudes and beliefs, fostering a more positive and rational mindset.

Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy for Insomnia 

Preliminary studies indicate that CBT for insomnia can significantly reduce sleep disturbances in 40-50% of patients. Heidi’s approach includes challenging self-defeating assumptions, implementing stimulus control, and promoting sleep hygiene to improve sleep quality and enhance the effectiveness of antidepressant medications.

Acceptance and Commitment Psychotherapy 

Heidi encourages patients to accept and experience unwanted emotions and thoughts without overanalyzing or struggling against them. This therapy promotes mindfulness and appreciation of the present moment, facilitating a healthier mental state.

Dialectical Behavioural Psychotherapy (DBT) 

Originally developed for individuals with suicidal tendencies, DBT helps patients manage emotional pain and increase distress tolerance. Heidi guides patients in making wiser decisions during distressing times, reducing impulsive and destructive behaviours.

Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

 Addressing relationship problems, IPT focuses on role transitions, grief, role conflict, and interpersonal deficits. Heidi helps patients navigate these areas to improve their social connections and overall well-being.

Supportive Psychotherapy 

Heidi assists patients in rediscovering and embracing previously effective coping strategies. This therapy aims to strengthen existing coping skills, providing patients with a robust foundation for managing life’s challenges.

Behavioural Psychotherapy 

Understanding that behaviours are influenced by external events, Heidi uses this approach to help patients recognize and alter punishing behaviours, promoting engagement in rewarding activities.

Positive Psychology Psychotherapies 

Heidi integrates elements of positive psychology to enhance well-being and foster a strengths-based approach to therapy.

Gestalt Psychotherapy 

Heidi motivates patients to take meaningful action rather than merely discussing plans. Through active behavioural experiments, patients focus on the present moment, leading to greater awareness and fuller experiences of their possibilities.

Existential Psychotherapy 

This philosophical therapy addresses inner conflicts related to life’s ultimate concerns, such as death, isolation, freedom, and meaning. Heidi helps patients navigate these existential challenges, fostering resilience and a deeper sense of purpose.

Person-Centred Psychotherapy

 Creating a comfortable, non-judgmental environment, Heidi demonstrates genuineness, empathy, and positive regard. This approach empowers patients to find their own solutions to problems, fostering independence and self-discovery.

Mindfulness and Imagery-Based Stress Reduction Therapy

Heidi promotes sustained, moment-to-moment awareness of emotional states, thoughts, perceptions, and sensations. Mindfulness practices help patients observe their experiences without overthinking, leading to reduced stress and increased relaxation.

Muscle Relaxation Therapy 

Through techniques that involve tensing and then relaxing muscle groups, Heidi helps patients reduce stress-induced muscle tension, promoting overall mental and physical relaxation.

Sex Therapy 

Addressing issues such as low sexual desire, premature ejaculation, and arousal difficulties, Heidi helps patients achieve more satisfying sexual lives. This therapy also supports victims of sexual assault or abuse, addressing sexual problems caused by stress and relationship issues.

Meditation Therapy 

Heidi guides patients in meditation practices to achieve peaceful mental consciousness. By calming the mind and reducing mental chatter, patients can ease depression, anxiety, and distress, gaining greater awareness of important life issues.

Self-Management Strategies for Bipolar Disorders

Heidi provides comprehensive strategies for managing bipolar disorder, including maintaining regular sleep, rest, diet, exercise, medication adjustment, and engaging in reflective, meditative, and spiritual practices.

Motivational Interviewing During Psychotherapy 

Focusing on a patient’s readiness for change, Heidi employs motivational interviewing to strengthen personal motivation and commitment to healthy goals. This technique involves engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning to develop a clear plan of action for change.

Heidi Kling serves as a clinical supervisor for PhD candidates at The Derner Institute for Advanced Psychological Studies at Adelphi University, mentoring future psychologists in clinical practice and research. Her diverse educational background includes a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in Group Psychotherapy, an M.A. in School Psychology, a Masters in Public Health from Yale University, and a Bachelor of Arts in English and General Literature.

With a thriving private practice in New York City since 2000, Heidi has extensive experience in psychodynamic psychotherapy for individuals and couples. Her career includes significant roles at The Village Institute for Psychotherapy, Gracie Square Hospital, and St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital Center. Her research contributions and presentations at major conferences further underscore her commitment to advancing the field of psychology.

As a certified life coach, Heidi combines her deep psychological knowledge with life coaching strategies to support individuals in achieving their personal and professional goals.

Santersus AG Completes Series A Financing and Announces Strategic Collaboration with Terumo Corporation

Published

on

Santersus AG Announces Advancement of NucleoCapture into Pivotal Clinical Development strengthened by Strategic Collaboration with Terumo

Zurich, Switzerland, 1st Dec 2025 – Santersus AG today announced the successful completion of its Series A financing, led by Norcliffe, a UK life sciences fund with participation from Terumo Ventures. The financing will support the advancement of Santersus’ NucleoCapture into pivotal clinical development while accelerating progress across Santersus’ broader pipeline.

Santersus has entered a strategic collaboration with Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies to advance NucleoCapture(TM) for the treatment of sepsis, a disease that kills 11M people worldwide each year. The collaboration integrates Santersus’ first-in-class NucleoCapture blood purification device with Terumo BCT’s industry-leading Spectra Optia Apheresis System, creating a novel therapeutic apheresis approach designed to selectively remove neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)— a major contributor to systemic inflammation and sepsis-related organ dysfunction. NucleoCapture has previously been granted two U.S. FDA Breakthrough Device Designations, including one for the treatment of sepsis.

Under this collaboration, Santersus will lead the pivotal NUC-CAP clinical trial across the United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland and Europe. Terumo BCT will support the clinical development of the program, and Terumo Ventures – the corporate VC arm of Terumo – has invested in Santersus’ Series A financing round to accelerate the development of this technology for a critical unmet need with high mortality.

“Therapeutic apheresis has untapped potential to address serious unmet medical needs,” said Veerle d’Haenens, General Manager of Global Therapy Innovations at Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies. “Our partnership with Santersus reflects our commitment to advancing innovative treatment options for critically ill patients.”

The Series A financing will also support Santersus’ preparation for pivotal clinical trials in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), where NucleoCapture has received its second U.S. FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for treatment-refractory disease. The pivotal SLE program addressing an estimated $4bn global treatment market – will expand Santersus’ late-stage clinical portfolio beyond critical care and is expected to begin following the sepsis study launch.

Santersus is also advancing NucleoCapture technology into solid-organ transplantation, including a program designed to perfuse and recondition heavily damaged donor livers prior to transplantation. The global organ transplantation market is projected to reach $61.5bn by 2027. In parallel, Santersus is expanding a NucleoCapture program in lung transplantation focused on the prevention of primary graft dysfunction (PGD). Together, these initiatives support the application of NucleoCapture across solid-organ transplantation.

Santersus is also advancing early-stage development of NucleoCapture for Alzheimer’s disease, with an exploratory clinical study under way to assess its effects on amyloid removal. The global Alzheimer’s therapeutics market is valued at approximately $5bn in 2025 and is projected to double over the next decade.

These integrated programs reflect Santersus’ transition towards a multi-indication, late-stage clinical development company and position Santersus as a leading developer of NETs-targeted therapeutic apheresis technologies across critical care, autoimmunity, solid-organ transplantation, and neurodegeneration.

About Santersus AG

Zurich-based Santersus AG is a biotechnology company developing NucleoCapture, a novel, patent-protected extracorporeal blood purification technology designed to selectively remove cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). NucleoCapture has received two U.S. FDA Breakthrough Device Designations: one for the treatment of sepsis and one for systemic lupus erythematosus. Santersus is advancing a diversified clinical pipeline across sepsis, systemic lupus erythematosus, solid-organ transplantation (liver and lung), and Alzheimer’s disease.
