Neuromodulation for EMDR: Targeting

Is target identification slowing you down? Are you getting the most useful information for successful targeting? Have you identified the most effective targets to truly move clients forward? 

A window to brain is available on the ear! Using Neuro-functional insights you can
  • streamline assessments
  • secure immediate and direct client engagement
  • build strong rapport and trust


Clients who are understood, are more receptive to to both you and the therapy you provide. Auricular Methods offer deep understanding of neural states in minutes. 

Learning how to read the dynamic somatic and emotional experiences mapped by the brain, you can identify the most relevant issues to support precision for truly effective targeting.
