What Is EMDR Treatment?

As mentioned on our Services Page, "counseling modalities" refers to having multiple mental health tools to increase chances of successful therapy. EMDR Therapy, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy, is one of those tools and we have trained EMDR counselors who teach you to apply it.
EMDR uses lights or other sensors along with guided counseling to approach traumatic episodes or behaviors during individual EMDR counseling sessions, without the client being re-traumatized and also allowing new information to be associated (reprocessed) with that experience. EMDR is proving to be quite successful as its use spreads.

Seeking Safety Therapy: One Type of Counseling for PTSD, Trauma

Seeking Safety Therapy is another effective type of trauma counseling used when trauma is mixed with substance abuse. Dr. Lisa M. Najavits authored and published the first research-based manual for Seeking Safety Therapy in 2002 and it has been well-accepted since then. Trauma is often a reason people end up with substance abuse problems. When trauma is acknowledged and treated at the same time as the resulting addiction, both are more successful.
