I have a special treat for you today! I have invited my very own counselor, Carrie Ryberg, to come on the show today and explain a type of emotional therapy called Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR for short.

That’s a mouthful to explain a relatively simple way of helping your brain reprocess painful memories. I have experienced first-hand the effectiveness of this type of therapy but I’m not always able to adequately explain it to others. So I invited the expert on to tell you why it works and how it can help you overcome trauma.

Carrie Ryberg is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in IL with nearly a decade of experience counseling adults, adolescents, and couples on a variety of areas. She has particular interest and experience working with trauma survivors. As a Christian, Carrie is equipped to work through the spiritual aspects of counseling as well.
