    Effective Evidence Based Therapy

    Four recent, independent, rigorously controlled studies of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) have reported that 84 to 100% of single-trauma victims no longer maintain the posttraumatic stress disorder diagnosis after the equivalent of three 90-minute sessions.

    Often more affordable than talk therapy as EMDR can require fewer sessions

    Some Insurance providers can be direct billed or covered by your health plan

    EMDR therapy does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or
    completing homework between sessions. EMDR therapy, rather than focusing on changing emotions, thoughts, or behaviours resulting from the distressing issue, allows the brain to resume its natural healing process.

    EMDR therapy is designed to resolve unprocessed traumatic memories in the brain. For many clients, EMDR therapy can be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies. (EMDRIA.ORG)
