EMDR Therapy Services

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a method of psychotherapy developed in the late 80s, that helps individuals heal from traumatic experiences that are still impacting them during their day to day lives. The studies that support this method show that eye movements have the capability of lessening extreme traumatic thoughts under specific conditions. Over the years, since it’s development, EMDR treatment has continued to progress, helping our clients.

How Does it Work?

By using special technology and a trained clinician, EMDR methods will help control eye movement in a way that slows down and lessens the emotional response.
