Holistic Therapy and Healing would like to welcome Taylor Hand to the practice! Read her bio in our therapist drop down menu.

Taylor specializes in trauma and EMDR is one tool that she is equipped to utilize in the treatment of trauma. Evidence shows that EMDR is one of the most effective tools out there to help clients heal from trauma. EMDR is a method of trauma processing that uses bilateral stimulation to support the brain in reconsolidating memories, so that once-distressing memories can become appropriately stored. Our natural responses to life’s struggles and traumas, at one point, are wise and protective. However, when the survival response remains long past the traumatic experience it can create behaviors and symptoms that are damaging. Trauma doesn’t have to be a big event, there are many ways that we can become overwhelmed in this world, resulting in stuck emotions, unprocessed memories, and unhelpful self-conceptions. These experiences can include relational and developmental trauma as well as living with pain or chronic illness. Our thoughts, feelings, and bodies are intricately connected, cyclically creating and informing each other.
