Jack Lee LMHC provides EMDR therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and Issues of the past. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing triggers the brain into a healing process. When issues of the past begin to haunt us, the emotional part of the brain activates while the rational part of the brain shuts down. EMDR activates both the rational and the emotional parts of the brain to heal wounds from the past.
When a traumatic event happens, the brain often comes up with irrational beliefs like “I’m not good enough, I’ll never amount to anything, I must be in control or something bad will happen!” and on and on. Irrational beliefs often follow us through our lives and keep us from growing. EMDR can help to resolve these issues in a safe and nuturing environment. While EMDR isn’t a magic fix and it isn’t for everyone, many I have treated have had positive outcomes.
If you find yourself having intrusive thoughts, over-reacting to events that remind you of the past, or if you become easily startled and at times can’t stand to be touched, you may be experiencing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. If you feel these are getting in the way of your life, EMDR could help you!
Jack Lee also provides clinical hypnotherapy which is a very effective treatment for PTSD and most anxiety based issues
