EMDR (Attachment Focused, as taught by Dr. Laurel Parnell)

I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) for all of my clients as it can be very helpful and efficient for many issues via emotionally charged triggers. I do not use eye movement, but instead offer you other choices such as knee tapping or pulsars and headphones that you can control. It is a technique that gets to the root of the particular problem and serves to clear it so that it simply becomes a memory without charge.

EMDR can be used to help with addictions; eating disorders; grief; Post Traumatic Stress from car accidents, war, those responding to life threatening events, abuse, rape, childhood wounding of all kinds - large and small; undesirable habit patterns in relationships (personal and career) as well as other issues.

It can be used effectively with children as well as adults.

No one knows exactly why it works the way it does, but it appears to involve neuro-circuitry of both sides of the brain (which the REM stage of sleep does) and changes the way an event is experienced. One may see a "movie" play before their eyes during the EMDR session. For some people, dreams become vivid and deep for a period of time after an EMDR session.

Please realize that there is no guarantee how anyone may experience EMDR.

My goal is to provide you with the most efficient, most healing treatment possible. It is my honor to work with you.

Wishing you joy in your life journey,
Catherine
