EYE MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION REPROCESSING
EYE MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION AND REPROCESSING (EMDR) IS AN EVIDENCE BASED TREATMENT THAT HELPS YOU HEAL FROM PAST TRAUMA, ANXIETY, AND OTHER EMOTIONAL CHALLENGES. THROUGH GUIDED EYE MOVEMENTS OR OTHER BILATERAL STIMULATION, EMDR HELPS YOUR BRAIN REPROCESS DISTRESSING MEMORIES, WITH THE GOAL OF MAKING THEM LESS OVERWHELMING. MANY PEOPLE FIND RELIEF FROM PTSD, ANXIETY, AND TRAUMA SYMPTOMS IN A SHORTER AMOUNT OF TIME, THOUGH RESULTS VARY FROM PERSON TO PERSON. IT’S A POWERFUL TOOL THAT CAN HELP YOU MOVE FORWARD AND RESTORE EMOTIONAL BALANCE.
​
EMDR CAN BE DELIVERED VIRTUALLY WITH THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY ALLOWING YOU TO RECEIVE CARE IN THE COMFORT AND PRIVACY OF YOUR HOME.
MY APPROACH
GIVEN THE SENSITIVITY OF THIS WORK, I APPROACH THE PROCESS WITH GREAT CARE AND CONSIDERATION. EMDR MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT FOR EVERYONE, AND I USE MY TRAINING AND CLINICAL JUDGMENT TO ASSESS WHETHER IT’S APPROPRIATE FOR YOU. IF I BELIEVE EMDR COULD BE HELPFUL, WE’LL FIRST SPEND SEVERAL SESSIONS BUILDING THE TRUSTING RELATIONSHIP NECESSARY FOR SUCCESSFUL WORK.
​
IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT EMDR FOCUSES ON PAST TRAUMAS, SO THE PROCESS CAN SOMETIMES BE DISTRESSING. HOWEVER, WE’LL TAKE OUR TIME TO CREATE THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITIONS FOR YOUR SUCCESS. LIKE ANY TREATMENT, RESULTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED AND OUTCOMES ARE INFLUENCED BY THE LEVEL OF COMMITMENT AND ENGAGEMENT YOU BRING TO THE PROCESS
