Trauma impacts all areas of our lives, making it difficult to have healthy relationships, successful careers, be a proactive parent, and have a clear understanding and compassion for who we are. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) is a form of therapy that helps individuals heal from the trauma and negative beliefs that have shaped their lives. EMDR does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or have homework in between sessions.
​
EMDR desensitizes you from negative feelings and negative beliefs about yourself that have been imprinted into your memory by "rewiring" your brain and allow it space to heal. EMDR Intensives are geared to assist clients to process more information and heal quicker, without needing to get into the details of the situation.
​
EMDR Intensives are geared to be a more effective way to get to healing. Traditional therapy sessions are restricted to less than an hour and can be interrupt the healing process. EMDR Intensives eliminates that hurdle and leads to scientifically proven effective healing.
