EMDR

What is EMDR?  

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an integrative psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, phobias, and panic disorders.  EMDR is a set of standardized protocols that incorporate elements from many different treatment approaches.  EMDR therapy has helped millions of people of all ages and backgrounds to relieve many types of psychological distress.

 

As part of her dedication to continuing professional development Julie trained at the Parnell Institute in both traditional EMDR as well as obtaining advanced training in Attachment Focused-EMDR which is a more client-centred and flexible approach that can often help those who may not have benefitted from the traditional EMDR protocol.
