One of the wonderful things that makes Jimin Jimin is his ability to care for those around him. In honor of his birthday, we would like to be able to increase our own ability to offer care.
Our goal is to raise $900 to cover EMDR Therapy Basic Training for a new staff member or trauma therapy intern through Trauma Recovery/HAP. This will allow us to expand our availability so that when we get a call requesting EMDR therapy for someone on Medicaid we can always say, “Yes, we have opening!”
EDMR is a form of psychotherapy specifically designed to help patients cope with and recover from trauma and PTSD.
Hope Roots is a grassroots non-profit working to create access to support and therapy for those affected by trauma. We invest in safe spaces for trauma survivors and provide care and training for both professionals and non-professionals who work with trauma survivors. Through international projects, we address the shortage of professional help as well as the stigma of accessing help faced by many across the globe.
