We are pleased to offer EMDR therapy at Orenda Counseling. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is designed to help people of all ages heal from trauma by resolving unprocessed traumatic memories in the brain through a variety of easy to learn techniques.
EMDR therapy can also be helpful for children and youth. EMDR allows children a way to work through their traumatic feelings and experiences through developing healthy coping skills. It is an alternative to traditional therapy for children and youth as it also reduces negative beliefs and emotions from distressing situations.
It is important to find a therapist who is trained in EMDR therapy if you feel like it could be beneficial to you. We are fortunate to have two EMDRIA(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing International Association) trained therapists on staff: Ellen Freise-March, LPC and Katie Stahler, PhD.
Please contact our office to schedule an appointment for EMDR therapy today.
