In this conversation I have the privilege of interviewing a talented and skillful therapist, Stephanie Chase, LMFT. Stephanie helps us understand what EMDR—Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing—is all about. You will learn why EMDR is such a powerful, research-backed tool for helping those navigating symptoms of post traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, relational conflicts, sleep disturbances, eating disorders and so many other challenges one may face in this life. Whether you’ve experienced any of these challenges yourself or are simply curious about how healing happens, I think you’ll find this discussion both hopeful and grounding.---------------------------------------------------------------------LINKS & BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS FROM TODAY'S SHOW:Connect with Stephanie Chase: Click on link below:https://www.campbellteenfamilytherapy.com/our-team/stephanie-chase/Recommended Books & Links1) Getting Past Your Past: Take Control of Your Life with Self-Help Techniques from EMDR Therapy by Francine Shapiro, PhDhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B00758AT24?ref=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_sms_apin_dp_RTSZ8MBNNM4G8ZDN4C9B&ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_sms_apin_dp_RTSZ8MBNNM4G8ZDN4C9B&social_share=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_sms_apin_dp_RTSZ8MBNNM4G8ZDN4C9B&bestFormat=true&titleSource=avft-a&previewDoh=12) Dark, Bad Day, Go Away!
