Treatment approach
"We hold the belief that our trauma can undergo healing through the body's intrinsic ability to self-repair. Similar to how a physical wound naturally heals, our body and central nervous system possess the capacity for self-restoration. By incorporating Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) alongside a selection of evidence-based treatments as detailed below, we aim to alleviate unwanted sensations."
