What is EMDR?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy that helps people heal from difficult experiences and emotional distress. EMDR works by engaging the brain’s natural ability to process memories. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation (tapping or sounds), your nervous system can reprocess painful experiences and memories so they feel less overwhelming.

EMDR allows your brain to “file away” memories in a healthier way, instead of needing to relive every detail of the past. The result is often a noticeable decrease in emotional intensity, intrusive thoughts, and physical tension connected to those memories.

My Approach

As a therapist of 15 years, I’ve learned that integrating EMDR with approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS-informed techniques), and Somatic Therapy provides the best support for working through a variety of issues. This approach allows me to tailor the process to your unique needs.

Sessions move at a pace that feels safe and collaborative. We focus on reprocessing difficult memories, and on strengthening your ability to cope with stress in the present. My goal is to help you find lasting relief and a greater sense of freedom in your life.

What to Expect in EMDR Sessions:

  • We begin by building trust, identifying your goals, and strengthening coping skills.

  • When you are ready, we use EMDR techniques to target distressing memories, negative beliefs, or recurring patterns.

  • Together we work through these experiences in a structured, supportive way, so your nervous system can release old hurts.

  • You remain in control of the process and can pause at any time.

Additional FAQs about EMDR

  • Even though it is highly effective for trauma, it can also be really helpful with anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, and stress related to everyday challenges.

  • Not at all. In EMDR, the focus is more on how your mind and body hold onto the memory than on having to retell every detail of what happened. You only share what feels safe and comfortable for you.

  • Many people wonder this before starting. No therapy can guarantee results, but many people find EMDR to be a powerful tool for healing. If you’ve tried talk therapy and felt like something was missing, EMDR can sometimes help things “click” in a new way. It’s especially useful if you’ve been feeling stuck or weighed down by experiences that are hard to move past. EMDR gives your mind and body a chance to process those experiences so you can feel lighter and move forward in your life.

  • Everyone’s journey looks a little different. Some people start to feel relief within just a few sessions, while others need more time for the process to unfold. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you and adjust along the way so our work together really supports your needs.

  • EMDR is considered a safe, evidence-based therapy that’s been thoroughly researched for more than 30 years. It doesn’t involve medication, it’s not hypnosis, and you remain fully in control and aware throughout the process. Sometimes strong emotions can come up as your brain works through past experiences, but that’s a normal part of healing. We go at a pace that feels safe for you. Many people find EMDR to be effective and empowering, because you decide what to share and how quickly to move forward.
