In some cases, trauma and other negative experiences can lead to severe mental health conditions. Sometimes, it can even feel like there is no way to escape these negative consequences. However, when you contact Harmony Hills and ask us about our EMDR therapy program, you’ll learn that we can provide you with the tools to cope with your trauma. EMDR therapy is a non-invasive treatment method that helps you reprocess traumatic events. It’s also evidence-based psychotherapy, meaning that experts in psychological trauma have studied it extensively. As a result, we have verifiable proof that this treatment method is an effective tool for treating trauma.
At Harmony Hills, we’re proud to offer a wide array of therapeutic methods to help give you the best possible chance of long-term healing from mental health concerns.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR) helps our guests work through trauma and disturbing memories alongside the other mental health issues they wish to overcome.
This psychotherapy was developed in the 1980s to treat people who had post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD is an anxiety disorder characterized by distressing memories, flashbacks, or stimuli that makes people relive the trauma they wish to forget. However, with the help of an EMDR therapy program, we can address the trauma and help you take the next step in life.
EMDR therapy is different from other trauma-focused psychotherapies in that it focuses on memory and changes how the brain stores that particular memory. Other treatments focus on changing the emotions, thoughts, and responses resulting from traumatic experiences. EMDR also does not require guests to have extended exposure to the upsetting memory or detailed descriptions of the trauma experienced.
The goal of EMDR therapy is to help desensitize a person to any memories that can cause anxiety, panic, or stress. This therapy lets the brain’s information processing system create new internal associations as you focus on the thoughts, feelings, memories, and other associations you may feel during the treatment.
During an EMDR therapy program session, the therapist works with the person as they revisit a memory of a negative encounter. The therapist guides the person as they reprocess the memory for short periods that can last as little as 30 seconds.
The therapist may wave a finger or two back and forth during that time and ask you to follow the movement with your eyes. Conversely, the therapist may use tapping movements, vibrations, or tones in one ear on different body sides. The stimuli that occur as you remember the trauma help the client reframe their thoughts and emotions about the distressing memory.
People of different ages and backgrounds have found EMDR helpful in reducing stress and anxiety and boosting overall health and well-being.
