EMDR is a powerful psychotherapeutic approach that helps lessen, even eliminate, the painful mental and physical responses raised by the memory of traumatic events and seeks to create new healthier patterns in your brain.

In EMDR, Dr. Noelani will work with you through phases to safely identify the distressing memory or memories and those situations that bring emotional and physical suffering, desensitize your body and brain to harmful responses, and aim for rapid and positive therapeutic change. You are taught techniques to manage stress on your own and enable optimal therapy.

Success with EMDR results in relief from emotional and mental distress, adjusts and redefines beliefs, and contributes to a relaxed and calmer mind and body. 

Brainspotting is another technique Dr. Noelani is skilled & trained in. Brainspotting locates points in the client’s visual field that help to access unprocessed trauma in the subcortical brain. It is a powerful, focused treatment method that works by identifying, processing and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation and a variety of other challenging symptoms. 

If you’d like Dr. Noelani to show you how EMDR/Brainspotting can help you find new peace, please contact her at dr.noelani@yahoo.com today for an appointment.
