With You in the Weeds

How Does EMDR Help You Heal From Trauma?


Listen Later

There are several therapeutic interventions that can play a role in your recovery from trauma, and perhaps one of the most proven, effective and powerful methods is EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. But what does that mean and how does it work?

As part of our "Surviving and Thriving After Trauma" series, Austin brings in special guest Dr. Mark Pfuetze, an EMDR trained therapist and Covenant Seminary professor, to explain how the body stores trauma and how EMDR can help you manage distressing memories, experiences, and thoughts that haunt you, shame you, or pull you from the present back into the past.

After listening to this insightful interview, you will understand more about:

  • How trauma affects your brain and body
  • How EMDR works to repair those effects
  • What to look for in an EMDR therapist if you decide that’s for you
  • Online Christian Counseling Resource: Global Counseling Network
