  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
    EMDR employs a body-based technique called bilateral simulation during which a trained therapist will guide a client through through eye movements, tones, or taps in order to move a memory that has been incorrectly stored to a more functional part of the brain. This allows clients to react to present stimuli without interference from past traumatic events. To learn more about EMDR click here.
