Find Relief from Past Trauma with EMDR Therapy
If you're considering EMDR therapy, you may be experiencing a wide range of emotions and symptoms related to trauma.
You may:
find yourself struggling with intrusive thoughts or memories
feeling on edge
avoiding certain triggers
be experiencing emotional distress, such as fear, sadness, anger, or numbness.
It's common to feel like you're unable to move past the traumatic experiences and that they're impacting your daily life.
EMDR therapy is designed to help you process and integrate traumatic memories and experiences in a safe and controlled way.
During EMDR therapy, your therapist will guide you through a series of eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation while you focus on the traumatic experience. This process can help to desensitize the memory and reduce its impact on your emotions and behaviors.
EMDR therapy can also help you to identify and address negative beliefs or self-talk related to the trauma, such as feelings of shame, guilt, or self-blame.
You'll work with your therapist to develop coping strategies and tools to manage distressing symptoms and regulate your emotions.
