Hello and welcome! I am actively getting licensed to be an EMDR therapist. I went through the training and started to provide EMDR in 2015 and now need to provide EMDR to 12 more people for licensure. I believe in EMDR and the help it gives people to overcome their struggles through Traumatic experiences. It could change your life!
EMDR therapy: What is eye movement desensitization and reprocessing? And how does it work?
EMDR stands for eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, and it is a psychotherapy approach that is primarily used to treat trauma-related disorders and emotional distress. Developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, EMDR has gained recognition as an effective treatment for various mental health issues, particularly post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic memories.
I recognize evidence-based therapeutic approaches like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) in helping individuals heal from trauma and related emotional distress. EMDR follows a structured and comprehensive process to facilitate healing and promote emotional resilience.
I put my faith in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior at the age of 18 and life has never been the same. That does not mean it has been without trouble. I would like to think it impacts everything I do though. It makes me a better husband to my beautiful wife and a better dad to my kiddos. I don’t have all the answers, but I know the one who does. As we establish, invest in, and grow the most important relationship we can ever have, we more clearly and confidently face any troubles this world may throw our way. It truly is a privilege to sit across from a person or couple that says, “Life is a little bit broken right now, and I need some help.” I have significant experience working with Anxiety, Trauma, and Adolescents over the past 11+ years, and if you, your spouse, or your child need help clarifying any portion of my information, please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to sitting across from you.
