Our bodies and brains have natural systems for dealing with difficult and stressful life situations or events. Experiencing or watching a frightening, dangerous, or violent event can overload these these natural systems. Other frequent life experiences such as job or relationship stress, divorce, loss, and accidents can trigger trauma responses as well. Feelings of depression, isolation, anxiousness, tension, irritability, numbness, nightmares, or alcohol/substance abuse are common. Other times, we might just feel stuck and unable to move past the past. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) is a therapy that can help.

EMDR is an approach to healing painful experiences recommended by the World Health Organization. I use EMDR to help people work through their most difficult memories and feelings. EMDR re-engages our brains' natural ability resolve these experiences, often quickly and without detailed descriptions of the event. Clients often express amazement by the results.
How you live today is how you live your life. You are not stuck where you are and change is not only possible, but might be simpler and easier than you imagine. Whether you are dealing with a major trauma or a minor set-back, EMDR can help you live the life you want and prepare you for future challenges. Please call me for a free consultation today!
