What is EMDR Therapy in Casa Grande, AZ?

EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a technique that assists people in recovering from the effects of distressing life experiences, such as emotional distress and symptoms.
Created by psychologist Dr. Francine Shapiro in 1987 as a treatment method for post-traumatic stress disorder, EMDR is an evidence-based treatment approach that provides both trauma-informed treatment and treatment protocol. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR employs bilateral stimulation to replicate the Rapid Eye Movement (REM) phase of sleep. In fact, EMDR treatments have shown that the mind can heal from psychological trauma faster than traditional talk therapy.
Traumatic events often lead to negative beliefs and emotions, such as shame, anger, and sadness. EMDR enables your brain to reprocess such events, promoting healing, well-being, and positivity in patients.
If you're wondering whether or not EMDR treatment from Christy Maxey might be a good choice for you and your family, ask yourself these questions:
- Do You Feel Stuck in Your Life?
- Do You Find Yourself Stuck Feeling the Same Types of Fear, Sadness, or Anxiety?
- Have You Grown Accustomed to a Negative Inner Critic?
- Do You Feel Stuck with Feelings of Shame from Past Mistakes or Traumas?
- Are You Always Repeating the Same Patterns in Relationships? Too Nice, Too Accepting, Avoidant, Easy to Get Triggered, Etc.?
- Is Your Brain Full of Self-Doubt and Harmful Self-Talk?


How Does EMDR Therapy Work?

Once it's agreed that EMDR therapy is suitable for you, your initial sessions involve discussing your goals and enhancing your ability to cope with stress. In the following phases of EMDR therapy, you concentrate on a specific event or focus on a negative image, belief, emotion, or bodily sensation related to the event. You then focus on a positive belief indicating that the issue has been resolved.
While you're focused on the upsetting event, Christy begins sets of side-to-side eye movements, sounds, or taps. After each set, you are guided to observe what comes to mind. Shifts in insight or changes in images, feelings, or beliefs about the event may occur. It should be noted that you can stop therapy at any moment if necessary. The sets of eye movements, sounds, or taps will be repeated until distress caused by the event decreases. EMDR therapy can be used as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with other forms of therapy offered through the Maxx Method.
To help paint you a picture of how EMDR therapy works, think of it like a cast for a broken bone. Unlike other forms of therapy, however, EMDR can be more uncomfortable than traditional treatments. It's important to be ready for possible emotional exhaustion afterward. To cope, you can create a relaxing playlist and plan some activities to unwind. Once the sessions are finished, take some time to recharge and decompress.
Who Should Use EMDR Therapy in Casa Grande, AZ?

EMDR therapy is something anyone can benefit from. It's not only reserved for people with extreme experiences or traumas. Even mild cases of anxiety and depression can be treated by a trained EMDR coach like Christy Maxey. When you remember something that reminds you of a bad experience, your body might react like it's in danger, even if it's not. This is a normal reaction, but if it keeps happening, it can make you feel really stressed out. With EMDR, you can heal and learn new ways to cope without having to talk about exactly what happened. This can help you feel better and live your life without over-worrying and ruminating on negativity.
If you're one of the many people who have experienced lackluster results from one or more EMDR sessions, it's crucial that you do not give up hope. In fact, many men and women come to Christy Maxey having had poor EMDR experiences. Thankfully, they soon realize how impactful and fulfilling the therapy can be for trauma. That's especially true when combined with other therapies like Inner Child Healing and Guided Visualization. Of course, EMDR therapy in Casa Grande, AZ, isn't the best choice for every patient - after all, every person is different and responds to therapies in different ways.
To truly discover if EMDR therapy is the right choice for your mind and body, contact Christy ASAP to schedule your initial consultation. That way, you and Christy can get to know each other better and discover the best ways to promote long-term healing and well-being. With that said, patients choose EMDR treatments for many reasons. Some of the most common reasons for using EMDR therapy include the following:
- Panic Attacks and Anxiety
- PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome)
- Eating Disorders like Bulimia, Anorexia, and More
- Trauma from Abuse and Violence
- Abusive or Violent Relationships
- Rest and Sleep Problems
- Social Anxiety
- Depression
- Childhood Trauma and Abuse
- Anger and Sadness
- Fear of Speaking in Public
- Betrayal and Grief

The Life-Changing Benefits of EMDR Therapy

Though EMDR therapy is more popular than ever, many people are still unaware of its benefits and how life-changing the therapy can be for people who are stuck. If that sounds like you, keep these benefits in mind as you continue to research this amazing therapy choice.

Triumph Over Trauma
Recovering from a traumatic experience can be extremely challenging, but EMDR therapy can provide a solution. Trauma can create triggers that make you feel like you're experiencing the event all over again. EMDR can help reorganize the thoughts, feelings, and experiences associated with the trauma so that you no longer feel controlled by it. While the effects of trauma may never completely disappear, EMDR can significantly reduce its impact on your life and enable you to live in the present without constantly reliving the past.

Enhance Your Mental Fortitude
Achieving personal growth involves accepting one's identity, building self-esteem, and understanding the internal narratives that shape our daily experiences. EMDR and guided therapeutic processing can help create a peaceful, efficient, and confident setting for individuals to accept their past and move forward. This therapeutic process empowers individuals, providing them with the strength and courage to confront any obstacle that impedes their well-being.

Reshape Your Life
During EMDR therapy sessions, traumatic events are broken down, enabling patients to gain a different perspective on negative events. This altered view can be as life-changing as the traumatic event itself, giving individuals greater control over how they adapt to the effects of trauma.

Overcome Circular Thinking
If you struggle with circular thinking patterns related to anxiety disorders, phobias, or generalized anxiety, EMDR therapy may be helpful. EMDR can assist you in overcoming these thought spirals by teaching you how to deal with your fears and worries without becoming overwhelmed by anxiety.

Understanding the Phases of EMDR Therapy in Casa Grande, AZ

According to the EMDR Institute, there are eight phases in traditional EMDR treatment:
The EMDR Institute has identified eight phases of EMDR therapy. These are:
- History and Treatment Planning
- Preparation
- Assessment
- Desensitization
- Installation
- Body scan
- Closure
- Reevaluation

History and Treatment Planning
During the initial stage of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, Christy will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your medical and emotional history and create a treatment plan. This stage involves discussing the particular issue that led you to seek therapy. You'll also identify behaviors and symptoms associated with the issues you're facing. Based on this information, Christy will develop a personalized treatment plan that outlines the goals to be addressed using EMDR therapy in Casa Grande, AZ:
- The Traumas or Events Causing Issues
- Present-Day Problems and Traumas Causing Distress
- Healthy Behaviors and Skills Needed for Long-Term Well-Being

Preparation
During this phase, Christy will explain the theory of EMDR, how it is applied, and what you can expect during and after treatment. Christy will then teach you several techniques for relaxation so that you have the tools to calm down in the event of emotional disturbance.
One of the biggest goals of this first phase is to establish trust between you and your EMDR coach. While you don't have to go into great detail about disturbing memories, if you don't trust your therapist, you may not accurately report what is felt and what changes you are or aren't experiencing. If your goal is to please the therapist and say you feel better when you really aren't, no therapy in the world will resolve your trauma.

Assessment
In this phase, you will be prompted to access each target in a controlled manner so it can be effectively processed. Processing does not mean talking about it. From there, Christy identifies different parts of the target to be processed. The first step is for you to select a specific image or mental picture from the target event (identified during Phase One) that best represents the memory.
You then choose a positive statement that you would like to believe. The statement should have an internal sense of control, such as "I am valuable/lovable/a good person/in control" or "I can achieve success." In some cases, when the primary emotion is fear, such as after a natural disaster, the negative thought could be "I am in danger," and the positive thought could be "I am safe now." "I am in danger" is considered a negative thought because fear is no longer necessary, but it is still present in the nervous system. The positive thought should reflect what is appropriate in the present moment.
During this phase, you will also identify negative emotions like anger or fear and physical sensations that you associate with trauma.

Desensitization
This phase of EMDR therapy in Casa Grande, AZ, hones in on the disturbing sensations and emotions associated with your trauma and the ways that you respond to it. In doing so, patients often resolve similar events as well. The goal of this phase is to use sounds, taps, or eye movements with shifting focus until your subjective disturbance levels are lowered.

Installation
The goal here is to concentrate on the positive belief that you have identified to replace your negative belief(s). For example, you may have suffered child abuse in your younger years and hold the negative belief that you are powerless. Christy will help strengthen and install positive cognitions that reinforce the fact that you are in control, not the negative thoughts and emotions keeping you stuck.

Body Scan
Research into EMDR sessions indicates that physical responses to unresolved thoughts are common. After your positive cognition is fortified and installed, Christy will ask that you bring the original target event to the forefront of your mind. If she notices any additional body tension, those physical sensations are reprocessed. If you do not have any body tension or symptoms present when your original target event is brought up, your EMDR session is considered successful.

Closure
Typical EMDR sessions end with closure and a debriefing on what you can expect between your current and subsequent EMDR sessions. If necessary, Christy will provide calming techniques that you can use outside of therapy. This part of the EMDR process ensures that you leave Christy's office feeling better than you did at the beginning of the session.

Reevaluation
This phase gives Christy insight into any other treatment plans that may be necessary for your healing and well-being. Like any type of sound therapy, reevaluation is critical in determining the success of your EMDR treatment over a period of time.

Opus Development Co. LLC has secured a key tenant for its first industrial project in Pinal County.
EFP LLC, a designer and manufacturer of custom protective packaging, signed a lease in March to occupy 100% of building A at Confluence Industrial Park in Casa Grande, or about 152,200 square feet.
The Indiana-based manufacturer plans to use the plant for expanded polystyrene molding and distribution as well as cold chain distribution. The company said it has current customers in the area.
The building will be EFP's first Arizona facility and is expected to be operational by February 2024. EFP is also going to invest $12 million for its equipment and for building improvements.
The speculatively-built Confluence Industrial Park started construction earlier this year and is expected to be delivered by December 2023. The second building, which will also be completed by the end of this year, will total 173,500 square feet.
Larry Pobuda, executive vice president and general manager at Minnesota-based Opus, said he's "thrilled" to have an opportunity to work with EFP, a business partner to Kohler Co., which is building a $300 million manufacturing plant also in Casa Grande.
"This really supports the strength of the Casa Grande market that continues to emerge with continued strong investment and this is certainly additional evidence of that," Pobuda told the Business Journal.
Pobuda said they are currently in discussions with two groups for leasing the second building at Confluence.
The industrial park is located at the southwest corner of Jimmie Kerry Boulevard and Sunland Gin Road close to the confluence of Interstates 8 and 10. Casa Grande and Pinal County have become home to a growing number of manufacturers including electric vehicle makers Lucid Group Inc. and Nikola Corp., as well as a number of semiconductor suppliers and speculative industrial parks.
“With the tightening and increasing land price in the Phoenix Metro area, more companies are looking in the Casa Grande area market for expansion opportunities," said Paul Sieczkowski, a senior executive vice president at Colliers International. "More developers are looking to purchase land and build in the area, which is 45 minutes to Phoenix and 45 minutes to Tucson with easy access to the west coast via the 8 Freeway.”
Paul Sieczkowski, Justin Sieczkowski and Mallory Wayne of Colliers represented EFP in the lease. Tony Lydon, John Lydon, Pat Harlan and Hagen Hyatt of JLL are the leasing brokers for the property.
Industrial leasing and demand for space has driven development across the Phoenix metro, which had nearly 45 million square feet of space under development and a 2.7% vacancy rate in Q1 2023, according to JLL. The direct asking rent across the Valley in Q1 averages 76 cents per square foot.
Developer plans 600-acre mixed-use site with industrial center south of Phoenix

A Las Vegas industrial developer is eyeing 600 acres for a new industrial center and mixed-use campus south of Phoenix that will represent an investment of more than $1 billion.
Through two new projects in Casa Grande, IndiCap has proposed an industrial park called Nexus Industrial, which will comprise about 5.2 million square feet of building space, and Casa Blanca, which will feature retail, multifamily, manufactured housing and another nearly 2 million square feet of industrial space.
Nexus Industrial will include both build-to-suit and speculative industrial product across 323 acres located at the northwest corner of Interstate 10 and Cottonwood Lane.
A conceptual site plan shows that the property could fit about 10 buildings ranging in size from 141,888 square feet to as large as 1.3 million square feet about half a mile south of a future freeway interchange and near the potential expansion of I-10 from Chandler to Florence Boulevard.
"The access to this site with the expanded freeway and interchange is going to make it a really strategic location for manufacturers, distribution or support facilities for semiconductors," said Todd Ostransky, vice president of development for IndiCap.
The Casa Blanca project will sit just south of the Nexus Industrial park across from the Promenade at Casa Grande shops. The site is slated for 86 acres of industrial development, about 160 acres of medium and high-density residential development and 18 acres of commercial space.
For the housing on the property, IndiCap said it will look for developers while it serves as the master developer of the overall project. The properties do not have a certificate of assured water supply, which means for-sale housing cannot be developed on site, Ostransky said.
The industrial portion of the site could fit seven industrial buildings ranging in size from 199,448 square feet to 419,776 square feet with frontage along I-10. Ostransky said these warehouses will be developed speculatively.
The two projects will be developed over the next decade, with construction expected to kick off in mid-to-late 2024. The developer plans to involve a capital partner to finance the project.
Casa Grande planning commission recommended approval for a general plan change and rezoning the Casa Blanca site on April 6 and held a public hearing for a general plan amendment for a portion of the Nexus Industrial site on April 20. The planning commission will vote on the Nexus Industrial request on May 4.
Tony Lydon and Marc Hertzberg of JLL are the leasing brokers for the industrial development. Ware Malcomb and Coe & Van Loo Consultants are involved in the entitlement process, but an architect and general contractor have not been selected.
IndiCap recently entered the Arizona market with several large industrial developments in Glendale, Gilbert and Mesa. Ostransky said they decided to plan a project in Casa Grande because of the opportunity to acquire the large site. The landowners had received interest for some of their property but not both parcels that totaled 600 acres.
"When that opportunity came, really what was exciting about it for IndiCap was the location right along the freeway, the location on Florence Boulevard, that's main street in Casa Grande, and the opportunity to be able to develop that site at that location with what we wanted to be able to do," Ostransky said.
More industrial development is on its way to Pinal County cities like Casa Grande, which have not seen speculative industrial buildings developed in decades. Several large industrial parks have been proposed for Eloy, while Minnesota-based Ryan Cos. wants to develop a build-to-suit industrial park across 122 acres with nearly 2 million square feet of industrial space in Casa Grande.

A Pinal County school superintendent was abruptly fired this week with no explanation, prompting one board member to accuse his colleagues of discrimination.
CASA GRANDE, Ariz. — Casa Grande High School District Superintendent Anna Battle was in the second of a four-year contract with the district.
On Tuesday, the school board voted 3-2 to fire her without cause. In a statement to 12News, the board’s president said the move was the best choice for the district.
Battle enjoyed the support of the mayor and many community members who spoke out on her behalf at a meeting in January. The previous school board president said there is no known justifiable explanation for why Battle was terminated. The board held three executive sessions behind closed doors with an attorney this year before Tuesday’s vote.
“She came in with ideas to change and try and make the district a better place,” said Former School Board President Jack Henness, who left office on December 31. “There’s a strong faction of groups up there that don’t want to see any change.”
Hennes blames what he calls “a cesspool of bad information” on social media for Battle’s termination.
Current Board President Chuck Wright, who voted to fire Battle, told 12News in writing, “My only comment is our board did what they felt was the best choice for the District. We will continue to move forward with our efforts to make CGUHSD the best choice to send your children for high school education.”
Members Steve Hayes and Steven Hunt also voted to terminate Battle. They did not provide a reason during the vote.
During Tuesday’s meeting, board member Taylor Kerby used an expletive when he voted “no” to fire Battle.
“F--- no,” Kerby said into his microphone.
Board member Kelly Herrington also voted no.
“I feel that Dr. Battle has done a lot of amazing things within the district. I fully support her,” Herrington said.
Kerby said he believes animosity against Battle escalated on social media, “which allowed the angriest voices to become the most dominant.” Battle is Black and Kerby is white.
“I want to say this very clearly, that I think if Dr. Battle looked a little more like me and a little less like a woman of color, we would not be having this discussion,” Kerby said during Tuesday’s meeting.
It’s not known exactly what was discussed among school board members and if Battle was given a chance to address concerns. School board members are restricted from commenting on what was discussed in executive sessions, said Jennifer Kortsen, Public Relations Officer for CGUHSD.
In a written statement to 12News, Kerby addressed using an expletive.
“Dr. Battle’s experience is one that unfortunately resonates with many people of color, particularly women, within professional spaces. The latitude that would have been given to a white man is denied. There is less room for error. When error does occur, it is disproportionately punished. Words that would be described as ‘assertive’ or ‘direct’ if spoken by someone who looks like me, are derided as ‘snippy’ when spoken by someone who looks like her. All in all, less grace is extended and failure is expected… While the use of the expletive is a regrettable slip of the tongue, it does convey the anger I feel over this decision,” Kerby wrote.
CGUHSD has two high schools and a virtual academy. The district has seen four superintendents over the past ten years. The community rejected property tax increases for the elementary and high schools last election.
Some parents voiced frustration last year with the district’s decision to lower the salaries of JROTC instructors and to alter grading policies, Hennes said.
Battle previously worked as Head of Schools at ASU Preparatory Academy, Assistant Superintendent of Operations at Tempe Union High School District, Principal at Desert Vista High School, Principal at Tempe High School, high school teacher and coach.
The exact cost of the decision is unknown. Battle is due two-and-a-half years’ salary.
“A unilateral termination of contract has legal implications and the district has not been informed on an agreement reached between Dr. Battle and the board,” Kortsen said.
The district may also face costs to find a new superintendent.
How the district will move forward choosing interim leadership will be resolved next week, Kortsen said.

Former Lucid USA workers react to sudden company layoffs in Casa Grande

CASA GRANDE, AZ (3TV/CBS 5) -- Last week, Lucid USA, an electric vehicle manufacturer, announced plans to lay off over 900 people at its Casa Grande facility. Some of those impacted say they feel blindsided by the decision. “Having it end at the snap of a finger is really disheartening,” one former employee said.
Those fired employees will receive two months of paid leave and a severance package. The process started on Tuesday with an email from Rawlinson to all employees announcing the upcoming layoffs. By Thursday, Casa Grande employees found out their fate. Some were laid off following a shift, others when their badges didn’t work when they got to work. “The whole shift before that kind of felt like the last day of school,” a former employee said. “Not really knowing if you’re going to see your friends the next time you come in.”
In his email, Rawlinson said, “We have been reviewing and implementing several other ways to optimize our cost structure, but unfortunately, these measures alone won’t achieve our objectives.”
All in all, the California-based company laid off about 18% of its employees, about 1,300 people. For two other former Lucid employees, working there was a dream job. “A lot of us planned to have a long career there,” one said. “And just like that, we were escorted out of the building.” “I loved my job. I loved it here,” another said. “The people made Lucid what it is.”
The layoffs happened despite the company exceeding expected vehicle production at its Arizona facility in 2022 and reporting annual revenue of over $600 million. Now, those without a job are unsure of what’s next. “I gotta keep looking for work,” a former employee said. “Just keep trying every day, keep trying to find something.”
But these former employees all have a message for Lucid. “They let all of that stuff happen in three days, and I’m not OK with it,” one said. “It was unprofessional.” “Take care of the people that are still there,” another added.
Arizona’s Family reached out to Lucid to try and speak with them directly about the layoffs but never heard back from them.
