When we are no longer able to change a situation,

We are challenged to change ourselves.

THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES

EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy is a modality I use with clients who have ongoing distress from trauma, both large and small. It helps access traumatic memory so that you process it safely and develop more adaptive ways of relating to it. One may feel relief from symptoms as a result, as well as a deepening and expanding of self understanding and compassion.
