Listen Later

Have you heard of EMDR therapy or had someone recommend it to you? Do you wonder what it actually is and what happens in a session? Is it like hypnosis? In this episode, you will hear the details about what EMDR therapy is, who it’s recommended for and what it does. It stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. You will learn what happens in an actually session and the pros and cons of it. As a Christian trauma therapist, Heidi is certified in EMDR and integrates it in her therapy with clients who could benefit from it and are ready. She integrates client’s faith with session for God to do the healing through neuroscience. Sometimes we need Holy Spirit to help us with our mind, body and soul just like Paul said.

“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” ~1 Thessalonians 5:23
