Episode Description: In this episode of Our Healing Network, I explore how the principle of “What fires together, wires together” is foundational to trauma therapy, particularly in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and my recent work with Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR). I share insights from my recent DBR training, explaining how it complements EMDR by helping the brain process and rewire around deeply rooted traumatic responses.

Together, EMDR and DBR offer a powerful approach to healing, enabling clients to reshape their neural pathways, move through trauma, and reconnect to a sense of calm and safety. Whether you're a therapist or someone interested in trauma recovery, this episode unpacks the neuroscience behind these therapies and why they’re such valuable tools for lasting healing.

Show Highlights:

• Introduction to the concept of “What fires together, wires together”
• How this concept applies to EMDR therapy and why it’s effective in trauma work
• A deeper dive into Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) and how it adds another layer to EMDR
• Insights from my DBR training experience and what I’m bringing back to my practice
• Practical examples of how DBR and EMDR work together to support rewiring the brain

Tune in to learn how these therapies support a journey of healing and reorientation!
