What is EMDR Therapy?

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.

Benefits of EMDR Therapy

  • Reshapes Past Events

    Creating a new lens to see past events can be just as life altering as the traumatic events. This different view allows individuals to reclaim their power over the current life adaptations the trauma has created. Combined with eye movements and guidance from your therapist, accessing these memories helps you reprocess what you remember from the traumatic event. This reprocessing helps "repair" the mental injury from that memory.

  • Improves Relationships with Self & Others

    Traumatic events often change the way we view the world, ourselves, and others. This may result in a negative cognition, such as "I can't trust anyone", "The world is dangerous", or "I am worthless", that will impact our quality of life and ability to have meaningful relationships. EMDR aims to help individuals modify these beliefs in order to improve one's self-worth as well as relationship health.

  • Enhances Physical Health

    EMDR therapy views the mind and body as interconnected. It not only addresses the psychological effects of trauma, but also the physiological. There is a growing amount of research that shows EMDR can be used to alleviate physical pain and symptoms associated with trauma, as this approach focuses on helping individuals process and integrate their traumatic experiences, including experiences related to physical pain.
