emdr THERAPY

What is EMDR therapy?

EMDR is an experiential therapy that supports healing by helping the mind and body process difficult experiences and emotional patterns. Through guided eye movements, EMDR allows the brain to access supportive thoughts, emotions, and perspectives that can bring a sense of lightness, integration, and inner resolution.

Many clients share that EMDR feels deeper than talk therapy alone, as it works beyond words and invites healing at a nervous-system and emotional level. Rather than repeatedly revisiting painful experiences, EMDR helps them move through and release in a way that often leads to lasting insight and meaningful change.

Our work together begins with a thoughtful intake process and the development of emotional and grounding tools, so you feel safe and supported. When you are ready, we gently use eye movements to process the experiences and emotions that are most alive for you, allowing them to soften, resolve, and settle into greater peace.

EMDR is not only for major or “big T” traumas such as combat or accidents—it can also be profoundly helpful for quieter experiences, relational wounds, or moments that shaped how you see yourself and the world. If you’re unsure what needs healing, that’s completely okay. I will help you listen inward and identify the experiences that may be contributing to your current struggles.

Issues that EMDR can address:

• Anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias
• Depression and bipolar disorders
• Grief and loss
• Performance anxiety
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other trauma and stress-related issues
• Sexual assault
• Sleep disturbance
• Violence and abuse
