What an honor to be able to provide a safe,
confidential place for healing to unfold. Helping to bring EMDR to survivors
of the tsunami in Sri Lanka, hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, floods
in Bangladesh, and earthquakes in Turkey has shown me the healing power
of the human spirit. Healing is possible for all of us. Karen Forte,
LCSW (EMDRIA Regional Coordinator, Bend, Oregon) |

I am routinely
astounded, as patients move through shocking and sometimes overwhelming pain and
suffering to rediscover their innate capacities for healing and
self-soothing with the help of EMDR. David Manfield, Ph.D. (EMDRIA Regional Coordinator, NW Portland, Oregon) |

Our capacity to heal through the use of EMDR is often felt like a wonderful
mystery unfolding. This involves the empowerment of the individual to change
beliefs that no longer serve her/him and make conclusions that enhance life. Ann Kafoury, LPC (EMDRIA Approved Consultant, Beaverton, Oregon) |

After using EMDR for over fifteen years
in private practice, I am still awed by the deep transformation, and profound
relief that this approach can bring. It is a priviledge to witness clients
unburdened of trauma becoming able to access their own internal resources,
strength and healing. It is as if one's future self somehow becomes available
in the present. Jesse Rappaport, LCSW (EMDR Institute Facilitator, NW Portland, Oregon) |

The impact of EMDR therapy consistently
amazes me! I have used it personally and professionally for many years
with very exciting results. When carefully merged with the new life skills
you will develop in your therapy with me, EMDR really is "state of
the art" therapy … it can be used for both trauma resolution
and performance enhancement. Carol Maker, LCSW (EMDRIA Approved Consultant-In-Training, NE Portland, Oregon) |

EMDR opened my eyes to the possibility of complete resolution of trauma, based on the innate ability of the body and mind to heal.

I have been consistently amazed at the
healing potential of EMDR - some clients are able to clear a trauma experience
in one session. Often people will start laughing or just feel different
- calm and relaxed. It seems to surprise me more than them! Marla Feinberg,
LMFT (EMDR Therapist, Downtown Portland, Oregon) |

My training in EMDR allows me to work in
depth with my clients - helping them tap into their courage and resilience,
overcoming self-limiting beliefs. Marc Hess, LCSW (EMDR Therapist, NE Portland, Oregon) |

EMDR has helped me to treat clients who
experience trauma, depressions, addictions, phobias and a variety of self-esteem
issues. It is unnecessary to delve into old psychological material, but
rather, by activating the information processing system of the brain,
people can achieve their goals more rapidly and have lasting change. Doug
Pullin, LCSW (EMDR Therapist, NE Portland, Oregon) |

EMDR has made a major difference in my
practice of psychotherapy since my training in 1995. I have often thought
I would be in "burn out" by this time, without the ability to
really assist people in getting beyond their problems with the EMDR protocol.
