EMDR

Therapy for Trauma and other Disturbing Life Experiences

Are you tired of feeling ….
Anxiety, anger, sadness, guilt, helplessness…
Like you can’t escape the pain or calm down. It might feel as if these uncomfortable feelings have become a part of you…
People, places, and things that others feel are minimal cause you to have intense emotional reactions….
Connecting with others is difficult and life feels out of control.

“True healing occurs when I give myself permission to feel whatever feelings live below the triggers.”

– Gabrielle Bernstein

Are you experiencing any of the following?

  • Difficulty getting through an adverse life event?
  • Feeling irritable and/or depressed?
  • Distressing dreams?
  • Avoiding talking about or thinking about a disturbing event?
  • Fear of being in the public eye?
  • Excessive fear about performing in front of others?
  • Excessive grief over the loss of someone or something?
  • Intense, debilitating fear of something?

Why is this happening to me?

Perhaps you can identify the source of your suffering… you’ve experienced a recent traumatic or distressing event and are having a hard time dealing with it.

Or maybe you can’t explain it.

You wonder why a seemingly benign event has you almost in tears, angry at the world, or plagued with stomachaches…especially since your life seems so good from an outsider’s perspective.

The source of your emotional distress may be from a past, present or future event… making it even harder to identify.

Present or future events can trigger painful experiences from our past that were never fully resolved.

There is a solution

Perhaps you’ve tried traditional talk therapy… but didn’t get the results you had hoped for.

EMDR may be the answer.
