“Even when the truth isn’t hopeful the telling of it is”
- Andrea Gibson

EMDR- Eye Movement Desensitization Therapy
EMDR is a trauma reprocessing therapy that uses bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements) to help reprocess the memory and other associated experiences.
“Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms.”- EMDRIA
Brainspotting
“Brainspotting locates points in the client’s visual field that help to access unprocessed trauma in the subcortical brain.
Brainspotting is effective for a wide variety of emotional and somatic conditions. Brainspotting is particularly effective with trauma-based situations, helping to identify and heal underlying trauma that contributes to anxiety, depression and other behavioral conditions. ” -Brainspotting Training LLC
