EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR therapy is designed to resolve unprocessed traumatic memories in the brain. For many individuals, EMDR therapy can be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies. EMDR is an evidence based practice I use for single experience traumas such as a car accident or natural disaster or ongoing traumatic events like adverse childhood traumas, domestic violence, or community violence.
