What is EMDR?

Exciting news, I am fully trained as an EMDR therapist! This can be offered in session at no additional charge. It is one of the many types of therapies I offer here at Healthy Habits Counseling Orlando.

EMDR is a well known and highly researched form of therapy that can treat a large variety of issues! It was originally developed in the 1980s to treat trauma and PTSD, but now it can be used for lots of issues. 

Using EMDR we will start with a history taking session, develop a treatment plan, and then use bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements) to process any past trauma. The goal is to process these trauma, memories, and triggers so it no longer disrupts your functioning.
