EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
EMDR is a simple and efficient form of counseling that can help with depression, anxiety, PTSD, sleep issues, self doubt, anger, painful memories and many other concerns.
EMDR uses eye movements similar to REM or dream sleep. This is done by auditory tones, or tapping in order to accelerate the brain’s God given capacity to process and heal a troubling memory, thought, feeling, phobia, etc.
EMDR reintegrates a memory and stores it in a more appropriate place in the brain. The client’s brain re-establishes the memory and does the healing.
The memory is remembered, but the painful emotions and physical sensations/disturbing images/thoughts are no longer present.
EMDR is effective in alleviating trauma-related symptoms, whether the traumatic event occurred many years ago or yesterday.
It often brings desired results with little talking, without the necessity of medication and does not require homework in between sessions.
Some clients can experience relief or positive effects in just a few sessions.
Scientific research has established EMDR as effective for the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress, phobias, panic attacks, anxiety disorders, stress, sexual and physical abuse, disturbing memories, complicated grief, addictions, chronic pain and migraines.

I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it,[a] but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. Philippians 3:12-14
