Innovative Treatments

Clarity Clinic’s Chicago location offers innovative treatment methods such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), a popular method for trauma and PTSD. EMDR has patients focus on their trauma memory while experiencing a specific pattern of eye movement stimuli to reduce the brain’s emotional response to the trauma and help promote healing.

Certified addiction specialists and drug and alcohol counselors work with the treatment team to provide compassionate, holistic treatment to clients. In addition to a holistic approach and evidence-based psychotherapy, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and medication management services are available.
