Always trapped in the loop
After experiencing a traumatic event, it can seem as though everybody else goes back to normal – except YOU. Something’s just not right.
The same responsibilities loom over your head, so you do your best to “suit up and show up” and try to carry on.
Over time, the coping routines you’ve established help you “get by”; but whenever stress or conflict arises, you carry out the same old patterns of dealing with it.
You really want to change; but for some reason, there is a disconnect between desire and action. Sometimes, you wonder if you’ll ever escape it.
There HAS to be a way to break the wheel. And there is: EMDR.
What is EMDR?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a proven therapy. It’s helped many people recover from the symptoms of a traumatic event, and it can do the same for you.
EMDR helps reduce anxiety, stress, sleep patterns, and other self-limiting and self-defeating behaviors.
How does it work?
When traumatic events occur, they can overwhelm the brain and its ability to fully process the reality of the experience.
The traumatic memory can actually become “fixated,” and disturbing images, sensations, emotions, and thoughts can plague you for a long time.
EMDR uses bi-lateral stimulation through eye movements, sounds, or tapping to help your brain process and make sense of the events of the past.
Let’s move forward together
Let’s face it. We can’t change the past.
But EMDR can empower you to loosen the grip that the past has on your present – and your future.
