Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) at Sanctuary Recovery Centers in Arizona
At Sanctuary Recovery Centers in Arizona, we understand that recovery often involves addressing underlying trauma and mental health challenges alongside substance use disorder (SUD). That’s why we offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as an integral part of our mental health–first treatment approach. EMDR is a well-established, evidence-based therapy shown to help individuals process the psychological impacts of trauma that commonly contribute to substance use.
Within Arizona’s calm and restorative environment, Sanctuary Recovery Centers uses EMDR to support the resolution of traumatic memories and emotional distress. EMDR guides individuals through structured eye movements while recalling difficult experiences, helping the brain reprocess trauma in a way that reduces emotional intensity and maladaptive responses often linked to substance use behaviors.
Our licensed clinicians at Sanctuary Recovery Centers are trained in EMDR and understand the complex relationship between trauma, mental health conditions, and substance use disorder. Sessions are personalized to each individual’s clinical needs, ensuring treatment is both effective and supportive.
EMDR at Sanctuary Recovery Centers is more than a single intervention it is part of a broader, integrated behavioral health plan. By addressing trauma and emotional pain, individuals often experience reduced triggers and improved emotional regulation, supporting long-term mental wellness and recovery.
Using EMDR To Beat Addiction
EMDR is one of several therapeutic modalities offered at Sanctuary Recovery Centers as part of our comprehensive behavioral health programs.
