Child-Friendly EMDR That Really Works
Aseya adapts every aspect of EMDR to be developmentally appropriate. With younger children, she uses storytelling, drawing, puppets, and visual tools to deliver bilateral stimulation in a playful, non-threatening way. With teens, the approach is more direct but always youth-centered and collaborative.
Parents are kept informed and involved in the process. Aseya works closely with families to ensure that healing extends beyond the therapy room into the home environment.
