LIGHT INTO DARKNESS

ALEX FURCHES LMFT

EMDR Therapy for Complex PTSD, Dissociative Disorders, and Related Issues

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an EMDRIA Certified EMDR therapist, I understand that life’s challenges past and present can take a heavy toll that no one else might see or understand. Whether you are anxious, depressed, or struggling with other effects of abuse or other trauma (or perhaps it's your child struggling), you had the inner strength to search for options online. You have started the journey toward healing, and it would my privilege to walk alongside as you find your way.

I've been working as a therapist since 2010, but I still get up each morning feeling privileged to take part in each client's story of healing and growth. I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients, and look forward to helping you.

Usually, mental health complaints are understandable given a client's life history.  EMDR therapy directly addresses the effect of traumatic events on mental health.  You can learn more about EMDR below, and on my blog (top right).  As an EMDRIA Approved Consultant and EMDR Institute Facilitator, I assist with the training and development of EMDR therapists nationwide.  I am a clinical member of EMDRIA and AAMFT.

TREATING TRAUMA: WHAT IS EMDR?

EMDR is a powerful therapy that can heal even the most complex trauma-related disorders, in combination with other approaches.  It is the recommended PTSD therapy of the World Health Organization, and is used by the DOD and VA.  EMDR is validated by over 80 scientific studies.

EMDR is different. It does not involve "re-living" past events or becoming "numb."  EMDR activates the natural power of the mind to reprocess memories into the past, which is like the relief you feel when a nightmare ends and you start a new day.
