Episode #7: What is EMDR? Elyse Harper

Amy Terrell, LMHC joined me to describe the ins and outs of all 8 phases of EMDR therapy.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), developed by Francine Shapiro PH.D, is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.  Repeated studies show that by using EMDR therapy people can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference (EMDR Institute).
