Transformative EMDR Therapy: Healing Through a Holistic Approach

Resolve traumatic memories, and address symptoms of anxiety. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) offers a powerful approach to help teens and adults work through unresolved pain and reconnect to a sense of wholeness.

EMDR is a groundbreaking therapy that can help teens and adults heal traumatic memories, and distressing experiences.

Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess painful memories in a way that reduces their emotional intensity.

This therapy can lead to significant relief from symptoms of trauma, anxiety, depression, panic, and PTSD, promoting healthier emotional regulation and greater resilience.

  • Intrusive memories

  • Flashbacks

EMDR and Art Therapy

EMDR and Art Therapy

“Like EMDR therapy, Expressive Arts therapy is considered a bottom-up trauma approach that accepts that trauma memories are often stored in the body and the body's sensations. Accessing and integrating these sensory aspects of an implicitly stored trauma memory plays a crucial part of healing and integration.” - EMDRIA (2022)

Combining EMDR with Art Therapy is a cutting-edge method that is grounded in neuroscience and nervous system regulation techniques.

Bilateral drawing techniques can help folks better process their experiences, reduce distressing symptoms, challenge negative beliefs and regain a sense of control over their lives.

“Expressive methods are helpful because, in EMDR, they allow the client to show or talk about things in a different way.” - Malchiodi, 2022
