Introduction: Welcome to our EMDR Therapy for Adults and Children page! We specialize in providing a safe and effective approach to help individuals process and overcome emotional challenges. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a transformative therapy that offers a unique avenue for healing.

Understanding EMDR for Children and Teens: EMDR is a research-backed psychotherapy approach that has shown remarkable effectiveness in helping children and teens process traumatic experiences, anxiety, and various emotional difficulties. Our EMDR child and teen therapists are trained in adapting EMDR for the developmental needs of young minds, offering a supportive and non-intrusive method for emotional healing through play and sand tray therapy.

Understanding EMDR for Adults: is a highly effective therapy technique for adults dealing with past trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and other distressing experiences. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps adults process traumatic memories and alleviate associated symptoms, leading to improved emotional well-being and increased resilience.
