New Directions Psychotherapy
Kerry Wallis
specializes in treating mood disorders, chemical dependence and trauma
related disorders.
The technique I use in treating trauma related disorders is EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing).
EMDR is intended to alleviate human suffering and assist individuals and to fulfill their potential for development while minimizing risks of harm in its
application.
For the client, the aim of EMDR treatment is to achieve the most profound and comprehensive treatment effects in the shortest period of time, while maintaining client stability within a balanced family and social system.
Many types of therapy have similar goals. However, EMDR appears to be similar to what occurs naturally during dreaming or REM (rapid eye movement) sleep.
Therefore, EMDR can be thought of as a physiologically based therapy that helps a person see disturbing material in a new and less distressing way.
