An Active Member of EMDR Canada
It is a powerful psychotherapy technique that has been proven effective in helping people who suffer from Trauma (PTSD), Phobia, Depression, Anxiety, Stress, and other mental disorders.
EMDR Therapy is in helping people process emotionally painful and traumatic experiences. Processing even the most difficult memories can be dealt with in a much shorter time compared to traditional therapy.
EMDR sessions help move the client quickly from emotional distress to peaceful resolution.
EMDR Therapy has been extensively studied and validated by regulating and governmental bodies in the United States and around the world such as the World Health Organization and the American Psychological Association.
