We are joined by Dana Carretta-Stein, an EMDR therapist based in New York. Not only does Dana practice EMDR with her clients, she is also a consultant to fellow therapists on how to best use EMDR with their own clients!
Per Dana's Website, "EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) is a trauma-informed, solution-focused therapy that was founded by Francine Shapiro in 1987 for the treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Since then, it has become one of the best ways to overcome anxiety, depression, and a number of other mental health struggles."
Throughout this conversation, the ladies discuss who is a good candidate for EMDR, finding a practitioner, what a session might look like, and how EMDR therapy can help clients through PTSD and complex trauma. This therapy helps us use both hemispheres of our brain to effectively process trauma. Trauma is at the core of so many mental health issues, and it is possible that EMDR may be the right therapy modality for people seeking help. Dana also mentions an EMDR progress journal she authored, which we have linked below.
