Recovery may not necessarily mean complete freedom from post-traumatic effects, but the ability to live in the present without being overwhelmed with the thoughts and feelings from the past.

An expert can help you sharpen your ability to cope with the demands of work and other responsibilities so you can enjoy life every single day.
EMDR is a somatic therapy technique that can be used to treat a variety of mental health issues. It reduces symptoms of PTSD, anxiety and depression. It increases your emotional regulation, while decreasing the emotional distress to triggers. It improves self-perception, and works faster than traditional talk therapy.
