Our Therapies

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is a powerful psychotherapy technique designed to help individuals process and resolve distressing memories. By using guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR facilitates the brain's natural healing process. This therapy is highly effective in reducing symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and other trauma-related conditions, enabling you to move forward with clarity and resilience.   Providers: Ashley, Alyssa, Ben, Bonnie, David, and MarDee For more information: https://www.emdria.org/

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)

ART is an innovative, solution-focused therapy that utilizes rapid eye movements to help reframe traumatic experiences. This approach empowers clients to resolve painful memories without the need to verbalize all the details. ART can bring significant relief from emotional distress in just a few sessions, offering a path to peace and renewed perspective. Providers: Gretchen, Matt, Thao, and Rob   For more information: https://acceleratedresolutiontherapy.com/

Brainspotting

Brainspotting is a cutting-edge therapeutic approach that accesses the brain's deeper regions where trauma is stored. By identifying specific eye positions that correlate with emotional or physical discomfort, Brainspotting allows clients to process unresolved trauma at its core. This method promotes profound emotional release and healing.   Providers: Ruth For more information: https://brainspotting.com/
