Free yourself from past trauma
What is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy?
It’s time to move beyond merely surviving and step into a life of thriving.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a highly researched and effective method for addressing trauma and PTSD. It is also beneficial for conditions such as anxiety, depression, OCD, and chronic pain.
During an EMDR session, you briefly focus on a traumatic memory while simultaneously receiving bilateral stimulation, which helps to reprocess and resolve the trauma that has been stuck.
Unlike traditional talk therapies, EMDR does not require detailed discussions of distressing events. Instead of trying to change emotions, thoughts, or behaviors directly, EMDR allows the brain to naturally resume its healing process.
Designed to address and resolve unprocessed traumatic memories, EMDR often achieves results in fewer sessions compared to other forms of psychotherapy.

How EMDR therapy works
Experience deeper peace from past traumas with EMDR therapy.
Our natural stress responses—fight, flight, or freeze—can become overwhelming when distressing memories remain unresolved. These memories may cause intrusive thoughts, vivid flashbacks, or heightened reactions to current stressors. EMDR therapy helps your brain reprocess these memories, allowing your natural healing process to resume. While you will still remember the experience, the intense emotional responses from the original event are resolved.
The key to EMDR's effectiveness is bilateral stimulation. This technique activates the brain and central nervous system, facilitating the reprocessing of traumatic memories. By addressing and integrating these memories in a more adaptive way, you can release the stuck trauma and achieve a sense of relief. Clients often report feeling lighter and more at ease immediately after each session, experiencing genuine change in their lives from this inner work.
As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I have completed extensive training in this approach and am confident in the profound changes it can bring. Additionally, I am trained to integrate EMDR with Internal Family Systems (IFS), a combination that often yields transformative results.
