SUMMARY:Freedom from Bondage: EMDR Therapy and the Process of Healing from 
 Trauma with Debbie Korn\, PsyD (in person and online)
DESCRIPTION:Once the Israelites were free from the physical bondage of Mitz
 rayim (the narrow places) they had to begin to free themselves from the sp
 iritual bondage of Mitzrayim. Trauma certainly leaves its mark. It can aff
 ect us—emotionally and spiritually—long after the actual trauma is ove
 r.  Debbie Korn PsyD\, TBZ member and author of Every Memory Deserves Res
 pect\, will introduce the idea that it is possible to free oneself from th
 at "bondage" with a therapeutic approach called EMDR. EMDR (Eye Movement D
 esensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based\, memory-focused psy
 chotherapy that helps people deal with the impact and legacy of trauma and
  adverse experiences in their lives. It’s based on the idea that various
  psychological problems (e.g. PTSD\, phobias\, depression\, anxiety) are r
 elated to a failure to adequately process traumatic experiences/memories.
   Unprocessed traumatic memories\, “frozen” or “locked” in our ne
 rvous system\, continue to affect how we perceive things\, decisions we ma
 ke\, reactions we have\, and the beliefs we hold about ourselves and other
 s.  EMDR therapy is all about helping people move from constriction to ex
 pansion\, from immobilization to action\, and from feeling inadequate and 
 powerless to good enough and more powerful.  In EMDR therapy\, we work on
  moving the past into the past and freeing people from the burdens that ha
 ve haunted them or held them back in life.  As we approach Passover and c
 ontemplate how we might free ourselves from the remnants of Mitzrayim that
  continue to plague us (no pun intended)\, come and learn about this power
 ful and unique psychotherapy.\n\nSign up here.\n\nThis is a free event.
