Welcome

Arrivals Integrative Consulting is the solo, retreat- and course-focused therapy & consulting practice of Tony Parmenter
With Whole Person & Integrative Retreats, we offer an alternative path to healing - helping you to reach your fullest potential faster, softer, and with results!  We offer a flexible, creative, and holistic approach. With Attachment-Focused EMDR as the framework, the longer session allows us to integrate more than just memory processing - such as nervous system focused energy work, inner child and past life focused memory reconsolidation, strengths-based and future-focused life coaching, preparation and integration for psychedelic therapy, mind-body practices, and more to help you experience freedom and joy despite what has kept your life stuck in the mire of discomfort, boredom, or trauma.

All retreats receive complementary access to the Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP).

Each support session is uniquely tailored to your individual journey, creatively adapting the approach to address your specific life goals. Available in half-day or full-day formats, your Retreat Plan is designed to gently direct you past generational or long-standing barriers and towards a life of deeper meaning. Through this approach, we create a safe space for recovery and personal growth, helping you connect with your inner wisdom and move forward with renewed purpose and freedom; providing the guidance and support to ensure personal progress, and encouragement to continuously evolve, adapt, and grow despite however your past has influenced your life now.

Tony Parmenter, owner and integrative consultant

A personal greeting

Hi there! I'm Tony. My life's passion has become to help people like you find joy and meaning, even in the face of life's extreme challenges. I believe in the inherent wholness which each person has and the ability for our bodies to heal. With this in mind, I find it meaningful and fun to explore, grow in, and work with a range of mind and body approaches to unlock your potential and elevate to your next level.

My journey to this work has been shaped by diverse experiences - from serving in Operation Enduring Freedom to teaching English as a Second Language in rural public schools in Asia, to experience as a Seeker, as an artist and musician, a trauma therapist, parent, and more. I'm deeply influenced by nature, multiculturalism, the unknown, punk culture, and integrative medicine. This unique blend allows me to offer a truly whole-person approach to wellness and helping you experience change that is authentic and natural for who you truly are.

As a trauma therapist, I pioneered the use of trauma therapy approaches in nature by developing the first published use of EMDR as a nature-based approach (Therapeutic Fly Fishing & EMDR (TF-EMDR)℠). I have always believed in the healing power of Earth itself to truly balance and integrate people into the fullest versions of ourselves. I understand life's ups and downs firsthand and know how challenging it can be to stay centered and grow in our chaotic world. But, I've also seen the incredible resilience of humanity in so many people who I have worked with! That's why I'm committed to helping you connect with your truest self and harness all of your inner strength and wisdom, to thrive and experience life as you are meant to know it.

Whether you feel like a prisoner to the results of unknown past experiences, are seeking personal growth, or looking to thrust your best self into the unknown future, I'm here to support and guide you. Together, we'll create a tailored approach that addresses your unique needs and goals, helping you move experienve a life of deeper meaning and freedom.

Let's embark on this journey of healing and discovery together. I'm excited to help you unlock your potential and create the life you desire.

Professional Highlights

It's Tony again. While the "letters after someone's name" can allow someone to show achievement and that they are dedicated to professional development, these don't say everything. For most seekers, they are simply gobbledegook. Rather than lead you to think anything specific about me through letters, I have purposely left off all titles when referring to myself on this page. It's more important in the bigger picture that you sense me as a person, as it's that connection which help more work than any piece of paper or title that anyone has. The following information are highlights of my professional journey, for you to have a starting sense about where I come from.
