“We have learned that trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on mind, brain, and body.” – Van der Kolk, M.D.
EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization is the # 1 treatment for trauma-related mental health issues. Trauma can be anything from a large-scale trauma like an accident or a catastrophic event in one’s life to a smaller trauma like a rejection, a difficult diagnosis or any memory from years ago that still impacts you today.
EMDR treatment is able to short-cut years of therapy when performed by a well trained professional.
