A New Way to Heal: Targeted, Effective EMDR Therapy

Move beyond talk therapy and discover a gentle, effective way to process unresolved experiences—helping you find relief at the root and reconnect with your sense of peace and possibility with EMDR therapy.

What Is EMDR?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy modality designed to help you heal from trauma and distressing life experiences. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR allows you to move beyond the "whys" and "hows," tapping into the subconscious and emotional layers of your experience.

Through gentle eye movements and guided processing, EMDR helps you reprocess painful memories, reducing their emotional charge. What once felt overwhelming can begin to feel more manageable, bringing you relief and clarity.

During an EMDR session, you’ll be guided to recall specific memories, emotions, or body sensations while following gentle, rhythmic eye movements (or another form of bilateral movement). It may feel a little unusual at first, but most clients find that they quickly settle into the process.

The goal isn’t to relive painful memories but to reprocess them in a way that helps the brain integrate the experience, releasing stuck emotions and beliefs. Over time, the memories lose their intensity, and you can feel more grounded and empowered in your life.

How Does EMDR Work?

The Benefits of EMDR

  • EMDR can help you feel relief from the emotional weight of past experiences.

    EMDR helps you gently process difficult memories so they no longer feel as charged or overwhelming. Imagine the freedom of moving through life without carrying the same emotional heaviness.

  • You’ll build a deeper sense of calm and resilience, from the inside out.

    As you heal, your nervous system can find its balance again. You’ll feel more grounded and better equipped to handle life’s ups and downs.

  • You’ll begin to trust yourself in a new way.

    As old patterns and beliefs shift, you can connect to a stronger sense of self-worth and confidence—feeling more like you again.

  • With EMDR, you won’t have to relive the past to heal from it.

    EMDR allows you to process memories without having to talk through every detail. It’s a respectful, gentle way to heal without getting stuck in the story.

  • You’ll experience a greater connection to your body and emotions.

    With EMDR (especially when combined with Somatic Experiencing), you’ll start to feel safer and more at home in your body, making space for calm, clarity, and even joy.

  • You can create lasting change—even if other therapies haven’t worked.

    If you’ve tried other approaches and still feel stuck, EMDR offers a different path. It works with your brain’s natural healing process to create deep and lasting transformation.

What to Expect in an EMDR Session

Our work together will always move at your pace. In EMDR sessions, we’ll start by building safety and trust. You’ll learn simple tools to ground and calm yourself before we begin processing memories. The actual reprocessing work may feel different from anything you’ve experienced in therapy before, but clients often report feeling lighter and more hopeful—even after just a few sessions.

You are always in control of the process, and I’ll be there to guide and support you every step of the way.

Healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone.
