EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an advanced psychotherapy approach combining psychology with physiology. It allows people identify and “clear” traumatic events. These events can be as seemingly insignificant as a negative comment from a parent during childhood (little "t" trauma), or as catastrophic as a life-threatening event (big "T" trauma). Both types of trauma can effect our daily lives. EMDR takes the process of traditional talk therapy a step further; it not only identifies the problem and its cause, it actually addresses the root of the issue.
EMDR has been successfully applied to many areas, including: performance anxiety, performance enhancement, stress, phobias and panic/anxiety disorders, procrastination, issues with food and weight, relationship issues, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, loss/injury of a loved one, car accidents, performance/test anxiety, low self-esteem, brooding/worrying, and many other issues. EMDR therapists are often heard to say that EMDR therapy is the most effective, efficient, and empowering therapy for many of these issues.
