Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based, trauma-informed therapy approach that helps individuals process through traumatic memories, negative belief systems, and emotional distress or numbness associated with past experiences. EMDR is often referred to as “Grade A Trauma Treatment,” as research has shown it can assist individuals through emotional processing in fewer required sessions than individual talk therapy alone.

How EMDR works:

• EMDR is rooted in neurosciences and taps into the brain’s natural way of processing information using bilateral stimulation (BLS), through the use of eye movements, tapping, or sound.

• The back and forth between both hemispheres of the brain using BLS allows for the desensitization of emotional impact of a memory to then integrate or reprocess the memory with a new, more positive belief system.

Individuals who can benefit from EMDR include anyone navigating:

• PTSD and trauma-response symptoms

• Anxiety or panic attacks

• Depression symptoms

• Attachment wounds, from childhood or relational abuse/neglect in adulthood

• Poor self-image, negative and limiting beliefs, shame or guilt

• Life transitions, difficulty with change, loss, or grief

• Religious trauma

EMDR can be conducted in a 50-minute session, although, it is recommended for use in 90-minute sessions. This extended time allows for maximum benefit and allocating more time to move through emotional processing, while still having time at the beginning and end of sessions for grounding and integration of new insights without feeling rushed.

This extended timeframe can be extremely helpful in moving through more emotional material and charged memories in fewer sessions, especially when paired with somatic skills, therapeutic yoga, and ego state practices. Most insurance will only cover 50-minute sessions of EMDR, so it may be worth inquiring about private pay sessions if interested in exploring longer sessions.

Integration therapy sessions addresses attending to the information, insights, and lingering confusion that often accompany a psychedelic experience. The goal of integration is to make things clearer that came up from an experience and to develop plans for stepping into the authentic version of yourself that the medicine is asking you to receive.

Integration after a psychedelic journey is crucial for lasting and effective change. To reinforce lifestyle changes and improve mood in the long-term, it is highly recommended and researched to seek psychotherapy following a spiritual or psychedelic experience, as a lot of information can make itself known to you in a very short amount of time. This process can be very overwhelming for individuals who do not seek effective treatment following these events. Integration therapy sessions are available to decrease feelings of overwhelm and offer areas of exploration to promote additional healing and embracing the path towards self-discovery and growth.

Integration work is also highly effective in the cases of medicine treatments that may be more of an ongoing experience, such as microdosing psilocybin or receiving ketamine infusions.

Psilocybin, or magic mushrooms, are type of fungi medicine that offers a psychedelic experience with many therapeutic benefits. Many individuals report significant improvement and long-lasting reduced symptoms from only one psilocybin experience when paired with proper integration afterwards.

Psilocybin use in therapy has been shown to significantly reduce symptoms of depression in as little as 8 days for some clients. Additionally, the effects of psilocybin have been shown to last for years after treatment, without the need for ongoing therapy or additional administrations. Read more on the amazing research done with psilocybin on mental health and addictions throughout the years here.

Individuals who can benefit from psilocybin treatment include anyone feeling stuck or immobilized in life, experiencing symptoms of trauma, depression, anxiety, struggling with addiction, and anyone wanting to take steps to becoming their most authentic self.

Ease Your Mind Counseling offers Psilocybin in either Individual Experiences or as Group Packages with the option to attend retreats. Retreats in group settings provide the additional support of community members, which offers a wonderful healing container to return to as we hold space together in this work. All psilocybin experiences include preparation sessions before and integration sessions after the treatment session with the medicine. Additional information on these packages can be found below.

EMDR Intensives are a wonderful opportunity to add a retreat style experience to your therapeutic journey. Intensives involve longer processing sessions to assist individuals through more emotional releases and reproccessing of information in a significantly shorter time frame that general therapy done weekly.

If you fit that category of wanting to work through years of therapy in a matter of months, EMDR Intensives may be right for you!
