What is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)?
We specialize in EMDR.
EMDR is a research-backed integrative therapy that uses our understanding of neuroscience to help the brain reprocess traumatic memories more effectively.
It works by helping to reprocess traumatic memories to make them less emotionally charged and overwhelming. EMDR uses visual, auditory, or tactile rhythmic side-to-side movements in order to stimulate the brain bi-laterally and stimulate reprocessing of help it reprocess the memories in a more adaptive way.
