Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR therapy is available to all BSFHT patients that have experienced trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression and panic disorders.
EMDR therapy assists in resolving unprocessed traumatic memories/experiences for patients struggling with the effects of trauma or past adversity in order to reduce distress and increase functioning. It assists the brain in processing traumatic memories/experiences and to allow normal healing to resume. The memories/experiences are still remembered, but the fight, flight or freeze response from the original event is resolved.
