At Ensō Mental Health, our compassionate and skilled therapists utilize EMDR to facilitate healing and promote overall well-being.
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)
What is EMDR Therapy?
Understanding EMDR Therapy
EMDR is a groundbreaking treatment that helps individuals process and resolve traumatic memories. By engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as following a therapist’s finger with their eyes or listening to alternating tones, the brain is able to process and integrate distressing experiences. This process can lead to a reduction in symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and intrusive thoughts.
EMDR is based on the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model, which suggests that the brain naturally processes information and stores it in memory networks. When traumatic experiences are not fully processed, they can become stuck in the brain, leading to ongoing distress. EMDR helps the brain to complete this processing, allowing individuals to heal and move forward.
Our EMDR Approach
At Ensō Mental Health, we believe in the power of EMDR to transform lives.

We combine EMDR with other therapeutic modalities, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), to provide a comprehensive and individualized treatment plan.
