🌟 Celebrating Another Powerful EMDR Training in Asheville! 🌟
We’re thrilled to share the joy and gratitude from our recent ACAPS & EMDR Consulting EMDR Training here in Asheville, NC. This cohort brought heart, dedication, and a deep commitment to trauma‑informed care — and it shows in every moment captured in these photos.

A special spotlight goes to Appalachian Counseling and Psychological Services (ACAPS), proudly based right here in Asheville. One of our EMDR Coaches and ACAPS Co‑Founder, Tara Chandler, continues to bring her expertise, warmth, and leadership to every training. Her vision for accessible, high‑quality mental health care in Western North Carolina is woven into the fabric of this work.

To all our participants: thank you for showing up with courage and compassion.

And for those already asking — yes, our next Asheville EMDR Training will be offered in October 2027.

Here’s to healing, community, and the clinicians who make a difference every day.

đź’› With appreciation,
ACAPS & EMDR Consulting

Nearly a year has passed since Hurricane Helene impacted the communities in Western Carolina. We've discovered that unity makes us stronger than division. We will all be permanently transformed by this experience. Although we're focused on rebuilding, the emotional scars remain, and that's perfectly alright! Take each minute at a time as we heal.

This week has been the end of an era for Appalachian Counseling and Psychological Services. The building we have lived in for the last 11 years is closing. This last year has been about making big decisions for our future and how we want to best serve our current and future clients. We were formed in 2014 by two friends who shared a single office. Now our company is 40+strong over five locations. We have weathered a global pandemic, catastrophic natural disaster, and more changes in insurance policy and coverage that anyone can count. As as owner, I am very proud of what we have accomplished and the team we have cultivated. I cannot wait to see where the future takes us. Www.apppsych.org.

🌱 Healing Takes Time 🌱

Therapy isn’t a quick fix—it’s a journey. Growth happens in the small, quiet moments of reflection, self-compassion, and courage. It’s okay if you don’t see instant results. Healing is messy, nonlinear, and sometimes feels like two steps forward, one step back.

What matters is showing up for yourself. Every session, every tough conversation, every moment of awareness brings you closer to the peace and wholeness you deserve.

Give yourself grace. Trust the process. You are worth the time it takes to heal. đź’š
