While trauma never entirely leaves you, finding the right EMDR therapist can be an important step toward achieving relief from the emotional distress that comes with it. At Bridge to Balance, we provide EMDR therapy in Hamilton, New Jersey, as part of a comprehensive, trauma-informed treatment plan tailored to each client’s needs. You don’t need to continue living in fear of memories. Give us a chance to show you what the right treatment can do for you!

Target the Root of Distress With EMDR

Unlike therapies that focus on symptoms, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy addresses the memories that continue to influence your emotions and behaviors. You might notice that certain triggers cause disproportionate reactions in you; EMDR desensitizes those triggers by helping your brain go back and process the original experiences connected to them. It works by using bilateral stimulation while you focus on a target memory. Over time, more adaptive beliefs replace negative ones.

Benefits of EMDR Therapy

You can look forward to several benefits when working with an EMDR therapist. For example, our clients often report:

• Reduced emotional intensity tied to memories
• Fewer flashbacks or intrusive thoughts
• Improved confidence and self-esteem
• Greater sense of control

As with any form of therapy, you must come to sessions with an open mind and be willing to participate fully. Those committed to healing get the most out of their treatment.
