Trauma-focused methods and online care
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) uses guided bilateral stimulation while a person recalls distressing memories to help reduce the emotional intensity of those memories. It is commonly used for trauma-related symptoms and can help people process events that have continued to disrupt daily functioning.
Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses directly on the effects of traumatic experiences, combining practical coping skills with processing of traumatic material to reduce ongoing distress and improve functioning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop skills to change behaviors and manage symptoms, and it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Michael Galvin works with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommends or combines methods that best fit the situation. He emphasizes working together to adjust techniques as therapy progresses.
Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to schedule appointments around work, family, and travel. These formats increase flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to maintain continuity of care while using therapeutic approaches like EMDR, Trauma-Focused Therapy, or CBT under the guidance of licensed professionals and therapists.
