Medical Community Psychotherapy LLC offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) — a non-traditional form of psychotherapy that is used to reduce the negative feelings associated with memories of traumatic events. However, unlike most forms of psychotherapy, EMDR focuses more on the disturbing symptoms and emotions that result from the event, rather than on the traumatic event itself.

Ultimately, the goal of EMDR is to help clients process past experiences and sort out all of the emotions attached to those experiences. Negative feelings and thoughts that are no longer useful are replaced with positive feelings and thoughts that will encourage healthier behaviors.
