Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (E.M.D.R.)
EMDR is an effective and science-backed therapeutic intervention that alleviates negative thoughts or memories by accessing existing information and introducing new information through specific procedural processing steps.
EMDR is grounded in psychological sciences with decades of robust research and scientific data. EMDR integrates elements from attachment, behavior, cognitive, mindfulness, and bio-informational processing.
EMDR can be effective and impactful for all types of trauma, including early childhood trauma and recent acute traumatic events.
- Thorough History Taking
- Preparation
- Assessment
- Desensitization
- Installation of Positive Cognition
- Body Scan
- Closure
- Reevaluation
The above are the general steps an EMDR therapist will guide an individual through the resolution of their trauma experience, impact, and symptomatology.

When you are ready to overcome your trauma, contact us and get set up with a an EMDR trauma therapist to begin your journey to recovery.
A.R.T. Trauma Therapy
Don’t Believe Everything You Think.
• Resolve old feelings
• Erase old images
• Rewrite your story
Keep the Knowledge. Lose the Pain.
Traumatic experiences can sometimes lead to unhelpful and often inaccurate thoughts about ourselves and the world around us. This can result in feelings of helplessness, hopelessness and low self worth.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) helps individuals reconsolidate traumatic memories so they no longer elicit strong emotional or physical responses. This allows thoughts to change naturally and enables individuals to experience post-traumatic growth.
How is ART different?
• Targets images and sensations
• Voluntary image replacement
• Takes healing beyond desensitization to “positization”
• Process oriented, not content driven
Critical Memory Integration (CMI)
Critical Memory Integration (CMI) is trauma-focused experiential psychotherapy that uses memory reconsolidation to help individuals integrate even the most distressing of experiences into their existing mental framework.
Unlike conventional therapies, CMI facilitates integration through direct experience rather than conversation or explanation, resulting in a more efficient process. The person is guided to tune into signals of bodily sensations and emotions, uncovering the root causes of patterns and responses. The process fosters deeper connections to capacities for growth and adaptiveness, leading to a renewed sense of self, and sustainable change.
