EMDR

EMDR is a type of therapy designed to heal trauma. Whether the trauma and the current issue you are experiencing appear to have a connection or not, traumatic experiences change how we act in relationships and in day-to-day life. They cause irritability, angry outbursts, the desire to withdraw, and negative coping (e.g. drinking more or excessive phone use). Clients who experience EMDR often have more patience for others and themselves, find it easier to open up and are able to trust their partners. The feeling of having a “short fuse” is gone. Want to know more about EMDR and how it works? Schedule a consultation or check out the journal.

GOALS FOR THERAPY

What to Expect

Understand
Relationship Patterns 

Once you learn common relationship patterns, such as pursue-withdraw,
you will be able to name and navigate relationship difficulties without feeling lost and confused.

Improve
Communication Skills

If your partner has ever told you
“you don’t care” or a colleague has noticed
“you don’t do well with emotions,”
it’s time for a new way to communicate and bond with others.

Feel Calm
in Conflict

No one likes to fight but every couple, close friendship or established business relationship hits bumps. Calm a racing heart and organize your thoughts to communicate clearly.

Create Intimacy

Build intentional moments of connection with loved ones.

Learn Tools to Open Up

Vulnerability. It can be a painful word. Yet, it is the #1 factor when attempting to relate to others or feel understood.

Enhance Confidence

Just like in your career, when you have the tools to do the job, you naturally feel capable and empowered.
