You may have heard of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprogramming). EMI is similar yet is often described as a softer, gentler, most respectful therapy.

HOW DOES IT WORK? I will help you integrate these unassimilated memories, by asking you to actively move your gaze, following certain patterns with your eyes. Through this remarkable process all sen...

This is why I love my job. 
In reviewing my year I came to see how many of my clients have really changed.
