New Counseling therapy offers emotional healing Any mention o f “going to therapy” for som e peo p le brings up images o f telling grueling details o f your past w ith m inim al results—-and that is the image Dr. Shilo Tippett wants to change. In O ctober, Dr. T ippett becam e a L evel I train ed th erap ist o f E M D R — Eye M ovem ent D esensitization and Reprocessing therapy. E M D R is a m eth o d o f therapy that allows people to heal emotional distress from disturbing life experiences more quickly than traditional psychotherapy. It is a process that allows the mind and spirit to recover from em otional trauma by initiating a natural healing process. In E M D R therapy, eye movements are used to help process memories and feel ings. In successful E M D R therapy, the meaning o f past events changes at an em o tional level. This leads to a transforma tion o f previous wounds into an empowerment o f the in dividual w ithout having to discuss the memory in detail o r do hours o f hom ew ork each week. “I have seen transform a tion happen in a single ses sion. It is humbling to witness and be a part o f the change in o u r co m m u n ity ,” ' says Tippett. Since O c to b er, 5 ad d i tio n al s ta ff at th e W arm Springs Community Counsel ing Center have been trained as EM D R Level I therapists. Ashley Blodgett, Master o f Social Work (MSW), recently completed the EM D R train ing. “It is amazing how effec tive EM D R can be with chil dren. Trauma can affect any one, so it was great to learn from our training that chil dren can heal using EM D R th e ra p y as w ell,” says Blodgett. Additional staff trained in EM DR in clu d e A lice Sampson, MSW, CAD C-II; G uy W allu latu m , MSW, CADC-II; David Howenstine, MS, CADC-III, NCGC-I; and G retchen Hingley, MA Can didate. Warm Springs Community C ounseling C en ter invites co m m u n ity m em b ers to schedule an appointment to find out more about EMDR. “Therapy shouldn’t have to be brutally painful or long and drawn out. It should be .som ething th a t helps you m o v e on w ith y o u r life sooner rather than later,’’ says Tippett. All in all, EM D R is only one o f the m any positive changes h ap p en in g at the counseling center.
