Traumatic experiences affect thousands of people each year. These experiences can impact or threaten your mental health, physical body, or life due to the intense emotional response after these events. Therapy can be helpful by providing you with constructive ways to manage the emotional response that was caused by a traumatic event.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing or EMDR helps to reprocess trapped memories that may be causing you to experience negative symptoms related to past traumatic experiences. Reprocessing these experiences/memories will help to allow you not to be affected by these intense and negative feelings when you think or talk about the past trauma.
