Rewrite Your Negative Thought Patterns

EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It's a relatively modern therapy modality that's widely used to help patients process traumatic experiences. EMDR has been highly researched and studied to show its effectiveness on more than just traumatic experiences but also for treating disorders such as anxiety, depression, OCD, addictions, and other distressing life experiences.

EMDR therapy, rather than focusing on changing the emotions, thoughts or behaviors resulting from the distressing issue, allows the brain to resume its natural healing process. For many clients, EMDR therapy can be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies. EMDR can be done in the standard 50 minute sessions as well as in longer intensive appointments that are anywhere from 1.5-3 hours long. The intensive appointments allow space to address complex issues without being interrupted by time limits.

A trained EMDR therapist at Align Counseling Associates, PLLC in Manchester, NH can help you rewire your brain to overcome negative thought cycles and anxiety-provoking memories.
