What is EMDR?

EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a mental health therapy method that aims to reduce emotional distress that is associated with traumatic memories.

EMDR is different from other therapies because it doesn't require talking in detail about a distressing issue but instead focuses on changing emotions, thoughts or behaviors that result from trauma. When you undergo EMDR, you access memories of a trauma event in very specific ways. Combined with eye movements and guided instructions, accessing those memories helps you reprocess what you remember from a traumatic event. Remembering what happened to you will no longer feel like reliving it, and the related feelings will be much more manageable.

Here at MBH, our dedicated counselors provide expert guidance in this, and other, evidence-based interventions.

Have you ever worried about something going wrong? And then your brain jumps to all the bad things that might happen as a result.

There's actually a term of this called catastrophizing. It's the result of your brain confusing what could possibly happen with what will certainly happen.

Here are three steps that help you to reframe or challenge or catastrophic thinking and approach things in a more rational light.

When a loved one struggles with substance use, children often carry silent burdens.

For many kids, school provides a safe, structured escape to be seen and supported. But with summer here, that safety net disappears, and the impacts of living with someone who struggles with substance use can become even heavier.

Here are ways to support a child living with someone with substance use disorder:

1. Help them understand that addiction is an illness that requires treatment.
2. Be honest. Give age-appropriate answers, and remember that it's okay if don't have all the answers.
3. Remind the child that they're not alone. Help them identify safe people, supporters, and resources.
4. Give them the chance to feel seen and heard, have power, and feel valued.
5. Let them know it's okay to ask for help.

Need additional help? At MBH, we understand how deeply these challenges can affect a child's emotional and mental well-being. That's why we offer prevention and support programs to help children navigate and build resilience.
