Therapies

Sessions of some specific therapy approaches are priced as follows

EMDR
(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

This treatment aims to work on your brain to desensitize and alleviate traumas including PTSD. Utilizing eye movement, it is expected to facilitate the reprocessing and normalization of traumatic memories. It is gaining more popularity through NHK’s recent TV programs introducing EMDR as an effective form of treating traumas. Some survivors of Great Hanshin earthquakes and Tohoku earthquake and tsunami have benefited from the treatment.

Only the formally trained EMDR therapists offer the sessions.
