Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR therapy is the key to unlocking the door to healing, resilience, and a resilient future, where your past no longer defines your present.

Life is a journey filled with ups and downs, but sometimes, the weight of traumatic experiences and emotional wounds can leave deep scars and hold us back from truly living. At Storm Haven Counseling and Wellness, we offer specialized Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy services led by trained mental health professionals to help individuals overcome trauma, anxiety, and other emotional challenges.

What is EMDR?

EMDR, short for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a powerful psychotherapy approach developed by Francine Shapiro. It’s designed to assist individuals in processing and healing from distressing memories and traumatic experiences. Recognized as an evidence-based treatment, EMDR has proven to be effective in helping people reclaim their lives from the grip of emotional pain.

Our Approach at Storm Haven

At Storm Haven Counseling and Wellness, our EMDR therapy services are conducted by skilled and compassionate mental health professionals who have received specialized training in EMDR. Our approach revolves around creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can work through their past traumas and emotional wounds at their own pace.

In the soothing rhythm of EMDR, as gentle as the calming waves of a stormy sea, mindfulness and healing converge, guiding you towards inner serenity.
