Evidence-based approaches and how they fit online
EMDR is an approach that uses bilateral stimulation and focused processing to address disturbing memories and the feelings that come with them. It is often used when past events keep showing up in daily life and relationships.Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. This method helps with anxiety, depression, and repetitive thinking patterns that stem from early family roles.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shelley will collaborate with clients to decide which techniques to use based on their concerns, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying a method for a few sessions and adjusting as needed.
