Types of Therapy Offered
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR is a therapy that focuses on memory. The idea is that some memories of past stressful experiences can get “stuck” and have a profound influence on our everyday lives. EMDR can help to change the way we see ourselves and the world, paving the way for relationships (without ourselves and others) to move in a positive direction.
This therapy is a little different than other types of therapy because during parts of it it is very structured and involves something called bilateral stimulation, which is when you follow a pointer back and forth on a screen.
EMDR can support with many challenges, including:
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other trauma and stress-related issues
Stressful life events
Anxiety (including performance, phobia, social)
Burnout
Attachment wounds

ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention)
ERP is a type of cognitive therapy that involves confronting thoughts, images and other experiences that create anxiety.

While anxiety can increase initially during exercises, people often find that it reduces overall and they feel a greater sense of control. ERP can support with the following:
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Anxiety (social, phobia, generalized)
