Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR Therapy) is an empirically proven psychotherapy that enables healing from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. This treatment is specifically used to treat anxiety, PTSD, and trauma. EMDR therapy demonstrates that the mind can actively heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma.
Highland Springs Specialty Clinic is one of the top treatment centers for EMDR therapy in Utah and Idaho where therapists are specially trained in EMDR Therapy. Call one of our locations today or to schedule a confidential counseling appointment with an EMDR specialist!
An EMDR specialist uses a bar of lights that cover the width of a visual field and guides the patient through the intervention using the person’s own rapid, rhythmic eye movements to dampen the power of emotionally charged memories of past trauma. The lights help the patient focus on a factor outside of the brain to break the cycle of recurring traumatic memories. Before and after each session, the client may be asked to rate their level of distress.
By using EMDR for a variety of different disorders, EMDR specialists can help the patient process traumatic memories into more helpful thoughts and feelings. EMDR therapy may not be a sufficient treatment when utilized alone, however, it decreases the time in treatment and symptom reduction often begins immediately.
At Highland Springs Specialty Clinic, we are here to help you overcome past trauma and find happiness again. Our specialists are proud to offer EMDR therapy and help our clients with state-of-the-art and innovative methods. To learn more or get in touch with one of our EMDR specialists, contact us today.
