EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a trauma-focused therapy that can help you process difficult experiences that may still feel emotionally present. Rather than requiring you to repeatedly talk through every detail of what happened, EMDR helps your brain reprocess distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming and more like something that happened in the past.

Using a structured process that includes guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, we’ll work together to identify experiences, thoughts, and emotions that may be keeping you feeling stuck. EMDR is collaborative and paced around your comfort level, creating space for you to feel safe, supported, and in control throughout the process.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy approach used to help process distressing or traumatic experiences, including experiences connected to PTSD, anxiety, negative self-beliefs, and other overwhelming memories.

•We’ll start by getting to know your history, identifying what you’d like to work on, and making sure you have coping tools in place..
•When you’re ready, we’ll focus on a specific memory, belief, or feeling while using bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements or alternating taps.
•You don’t have to tell every detail of an experience or relive it exactly as it happened. The goal is to help your brain process what feels “stuck” so the memory has less emotional intensity and influence in the present.

If you’re wondering whether EMDR could be right for you, I’d love to help you explore it.
