FAQ's
Is online EMDR effective? I heard it must be done in person?
​
EMDR is an effective, evidence-based treatment for anxiety, trauma, and depression that focuses on helping the brain heal itself. Widely considered one of the most effective treatments for PTSD, EMDR can be performed virtually by a trained EMDR professional.
The techniques we use are effective when done over a video connection and can help you transform the way you think and feel.
​
Is hypnotherapy based on real science?
​
There is increasing evidence that hypnotherapy can provide better immediate and long-term relief from trauma symptoms. A review from Rotaru and Rusu showed that hypnosis is effective in treatment for PTSD, and other studies have confirmed its effectiveness when combined with psychotherapy.
Hypnotherapy is one tool that we may use in your personalized therapy plan, based on your needs and goals for therapy.
