What is EMDR (Part 2)

Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! This is part 2 of What is EMDR Therapy. Kelly discusses EMDR Therapy, focusing on how it is believed to work and the wide range of presenting issues it can address. She explains that EMDR therapy integrates principles from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and somatic therapies, addressing past, present, and future anxieties. Kelly also mentions the importance of finding a licensed, trained therapist for EMDR treatment and offers resources to help viewers find one in their area. Overall, she emphasizes the transformative and healing potential of EMDR therapy.

I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer. I'm a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the "life stuff" and "emotional vocabulary" that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I've learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing!

I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There's a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.
