Heal The Past So You Can Live Your Best Life Now

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based treatment approach that facilities the processing of past traumatic events that impact us in our current lives. Research has shown it to be rapid, effective and applicable to a variety of issues.  It has proven successful in the treatment of:

PTSD

Anxiety, Stress & Panic

Phobias

Relationship Issues

Addictions

Chronic Pain

Sexual & Physical Abuse

Sleep Problems

Performance Anxiety

Grief & Loss

Disturbing memories or experiences from earlier in our lives

With the use of bi-lateral stimulation (eye movements, hand-tapping, knee-taping, etc.), EMDR appears to unlock the nervous system and allow the brain to reprocess disturbing memories. The dual focus – being in the present moment while calling up the disturbing memory – facilitates the brain in moving the disturbance from emotion intense areas of the brain to cognitive areas where it can be recalled with a much decreased level of disturbance. 

Feel free to reach out to us for a phone consultation to determine if this could be the right treatment for you.
