EMDR therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) is a highly researched structured psychotherapy that can help people recover from distressing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and trauma response symptoms (Maxfield, 2019).
When using EMDR, I begin by helping you increase your confidence in managing difficult emotions by building your coping skills and resources. Then, we move on to exploring your painful experiences and any disempowering beliefs internalized from those experiences. Next, we use bilateral stimulation (via moving eyes back and forth) to reprocess troubling memories, desensitizing painful emotions, and increasing adaptive beliefs.
My clients have reported feeling more confident, peaceful, and empowered after EMDR therapy. I have successfully used EMDR to treat Anxiety, Depression, OCD, PTSD, and Adjustment Disorders.
