EMDR Sessions

Briana Van Slyck is one of our licensed clinical social workers specializing in EMDR. She works closely with patients to navigate their emotional challenges and achieve stability.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a revolutionary therapeutic approach designed to help individuals process and heal from both deep-rooted and recent trauma.

One of the primary advantages of EMDR is its ability to facilitate rapid processing of distressing memories. Unlike traditional talk therapy, which often requires extensive discussion of painful experiences, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation—typically in the form of guided eye movements—to promote mental and emotional healing. This enables clients to reprocess traumatic memories, significantly reducing their emotional charge and fostering resilience.

EMDR can benefit a wide range of individuals, including those struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges stemming from traumatic experiences. Many clients experience relief after just a few sessions, making EMDR a time-efficient option in trauma therapy. Furthermore, the skills learned during EMDR sessions empower individuals to regain control over their thoughts and emotions, paving the way for healing and personal growth.

In addition to addressing the root causes of trauma, EMDR encourages the development of healthy coping strategies and promotes self-acceptance. Briana’s empathetic and supportive approach ensures that clients feel safe and understood throughout their healing journey. By addressing core issues associated with trauma, Briana empowers her clients to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives, transforming their pain into a source of strength and resilience.

The duration of treatment is based on the patient's assessment and specific needs. Some patients experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may commit to 8 to 12 sessions. Additionally, some choose to incorporate EMDR throughout their individual treatment.
