The use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) has been described as "life changing" by many people. It is a highly effective approach for treating many issues, and reduces the impact of trauma both current and historical. I integrate EMDR into my practice by weaving it into our work together according to your comfort level.
