EMDR Therapy

What is EMDR?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an AMAZINGLY effective therapeutic approach for individuals navigating the emotional fallout of breakups and attachment injuries.

This innovative method helps clients process distressing memories and emotions associated with significant relational losses, allowing for healing and growth.

Through guided bilateral stimulation, EMDR facilitates the reprocessing of traumatic experiences, enabling individuals to reshape negative beliefs and reduce anxiety.

As clients work through their feelings, they develop healthier perspectives on relationships and self-worth.

EMDR offers a pathway to overcoming attachment wounds, fostering resilience, and opening the door to healthier connections in the future.

More about EMDR:

• EMDR helps repairs our sense of safety and connection/trust that gets dysregulated with life experiences and trauma

• EMDR is not only for trauma, but can be used for almost any problem/issue

• EMDR has 8 phases which are history and treatment planning, preparation, assessment, installation, body scan, closure

• EMDR helps memories get UNSTUCK, and allow for them to be fully reprocessed and be integrated into the system

• Goals of EMDR: emotional distress is relieved, negative beliefs are reformulated, and physiological arousal is reduced.

• EMDR takes into consideration our WHOLE body and mind (physiological and psychological responses), and our own bodies ability to heal (as it does if you were to fall and scrape your knee)

• EMDR can be used in conjunction with any other therapy/talk therapy, which means you are allowed to work with 2 psychotherapists at the same time, 1 for primary treatment, and then EMDR is seen as a specialty treatment with a specific focus.
