EMDR Therapy in the Northern Suburbs
Healing through eye movement
Our licensed therapists use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help clients process and move past traumatic events, negative beliefs and intense emotions.
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation like eye movements or taps to help you process traumatic memories. This drug-free, evidence-based therapy relieves PTSD, anxiety, depression and other mental health conditions by activating the brain’s innate healing abilities.
How EMDR works
The rhythmic left-right visual or auditory stimulation of EMDR unlocks traumatic memories stored in the brain. This activation process creates new connections between these disturbances and healthy coping, allowing distressing events to finally flow out.
Conditions EMDR can treat:
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- Depression
- Grief and Loss
- Addiction
- Chronic Pain
- Eating Disorders
- Anxiety
- Phobias
- Panic Attacks
- Performance Anxiety
- Stress Reduction
- Self-Esteem Issues
- Sleep Disturbances related to trauma or stress
- Trauma from various life experiences (e.g., accidents, assault, natural disasters)
