Many of us have faced negative or scary and life-threatening experiences that have impacted how we move through the world; this is trauma. The effects of trauma do not need to influence our lives, and relief can come when working with an EMDR therapist. EMDR therapy focuses on integrating trauma into your story and empowering you! 

Dr. Krista, a trained EMDR therapist and Heather Davidson, a certified EMDR therapist, use Somatic attachment-focused EMDR. EMDR Therapy, or Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, uses a series of eye movements to assist in reprocessing negative events in a safe way to promote healing.  

Types of Trauma we treat include: 

  • Early Childhood Trauma

  • Trauma due to Accidents & Natural Disasters

  • Survivors and Witnesses of Violence

  • Sexual Trauma 

  • Religious Trauma

  • Relational Trauma 

  • Pregnancy Loss 

  • Traumatic Birth

  • Work-related Trauma for First Responders and Health Care Professionals
