EMDR THERAPY


EMDR stands for – Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. Wabash Recovery offers EMDR therapy to clients suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and other trauma-related distress. Trauma is common among those struggling with addiction and mental health disorders, so this type of therapy is a natural fit for inclusion in a comprehensive treatment program.

  • What is EMDR

    Extensive scientific and clinical research has determined that EMDR is an effective method to help people heal from their past traumatic experiences.


    It’s believed that past traumatic experiences continue to cause problems in our lives when the memory of that experience is not processed properly. Unprocessed memories contain all the negative emotions, thoughts and even the physical sensations that were present at the time of the event. When these memories are triggered, so are the negative elements of the initial event, causing symptoms of PTSD or other mental health disorders.


    EMDR therapy incorporates the use of eye movements and other forms of rhythmic bilateral (left-right) stimulation (for example, taps or tones). While clients simultaneously focus on the trauma memory and experience bilateral stimulation, the pain and distress of the memory are reduced.


    This type of therapy is intended to change how the memory is stored in the brain, thereby lowering or even eradicating the distressing symptoms. Anyone who has suffered past trauma can benefit from EMDR.

  • How does EMDR work?

    If it’s determined that EMDR is a good fit for your needs and goals, you’ll meet with a counselor once a week for 6-12 weeks. Some clients benefit from fewer sessions; the duration of therapy depends on your progress.


    There are eight phases to EMDR therapy:


    Phase 1: History and Treatment Planning. The therapist assesses your readiness for EMDR and develops a treatment plan. Together, you’ll identify potential targets (past traumatic events) for EMDR processing.


    Phase 2: Preparation. During this phase, your therapist explains the procedures to you and introduces some stress reduction techniques you can use if any emotional disturbances arise after a session.


    Phases 3-6: Assessment, Desensitization, Installation, Body Scan. In these phases, a target is identified and processed using EMDR techniques. Your counselor will ask you to hold different aspects of the traumatic experience in mind while you use your eyes to track their hand as it moves back and forth across your field of vision (or other stimulation). They will evaluate you for changes in emotion and thinking, using standard EMDR techniques to strengthen positive thinking and process anything negative remaining.


    Phase 7: Closure. This ends the session. If the traumatic memory is not fully processed in the session, you’ll receive techniques to remain calm and safe in between sessions.


    Phase 8: Reevaluation. The next session begins with this phase, in which you and your therapist discuss your progress. You’ll determine if any new areas need treatment and which targets to continue processing.

COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY


Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy treatment that offers a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. We at Wabash Recovery believe that our thoughts and beliefs shape our behaviors, and by using cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, we can change false beliefs and thinking errors to affect behavior positively.

  • How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?

    Cognitive behavioral therapy works by challenging and changing the negative and distorted thoughts and beliefs that are deeply ingrained in us. Clients are encouraged to challenge these beliefs in therapy as part of a comprehensive effort to change their destructive behavior patterns and achieve health and joy.


    To change the thinking patterns that are causing you harm, our therapists might ask you to:


    Examine how your distortions in thinking are creating problems in your life:

    - Reevaluate if these long-held beliefs are serving you

    - Develop problem-solving skills to cope with challenges

    - Participate in role-play exercises to prepare for potentially problematic situations

    - Develop more confidence is your abilities

    - Learn strategies that will help you relax your body and quiet your mind

    - Cognitive behavioral therapy techniques


    CBT is a solutions-oriented mode of treatment. Our counselors work with you to understand your challenges and develop a treatment strategy. The primary focus is on moving forward and developing healthy ways to cope with life. To do so, our therapists will help you set and reach short-term goals. Then, they will use several CBT techniques that gradually adjust how you think, feel and react to life’s situations.


    These CBT techniques include:


    Journaling

    - Talking with your therapist and peers

    - Brainstorming solutions to problems

    - Challenging beliefs that don’t serve you

    - Mindfulness, relaxation, deep breathing

    - Reading and/or writing assignments

    - Saying affirmations

    - Visualization

    - Reframing negative thoughts

    - The benefits of CBT


    Cognitive behavioral therapy is widely regarded as one of the most successful forms of psychotherapy. Clients at Wabash Recovery are making real, effective changes in their lives. When used as part of our comprehensive treatment program, clients enjoy dramatic improvements in their quality of life.

  • What can cognitive behavioral therapy accomplish?

    • Better stress management
    • Reduced anxiety and depression
    • How to reframe the situation at hand and how you interpret and react to it
    • Offers healthy alternatives to destructive thinking and behavior, including addiction

  • Does CBT work?

    Yes. According to the American Psychological Association, cognitive behavioral therapy is effective in treating a range of mental and behavioral disorders, including:


    • Depression
    • Anxiety
    • Substance use problems
    • Eating disorders
    • Mental illness

    In addition, numerous studies, such as this one reported in ScienceDirect, have concluded that cognitive behavioral therapy changes the brain’s prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for higher-level thinking. This means that CBT might be able to make fundamental, physical changes to the part of our brain that handles emotions and logic.


    Finally, the BBC reported, “Of all the talking therapies, CBT has the most clinical evidence to show that it works.” When used as part of a holistic treatment program, CBT can help people find freedom and joy.
