EMDR THERAPY
What is EMDR?
EMDR is a psychotherapy approach developed to help people heal from distressing memories, traumatic experiences, and core beliefs that feel hard to shake. Instead of relying solely on talk therapy, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping) to activate both hemispheres of the brain and facilitate natural emotional processing.
Clients often describe EMDR as powerful, surprising, and deeply clarifying — especially when paired with body-based awareness and nervous system regulation.
what can emdr help with?
Explore what’s been stuck — and begin to move through it
- Early attachment wounds and relational trauma
- Complex PTSD and the long-term effects of childhood experiences
- Emotional overwhelm, fear-based thought patterns, and chronic anxiety
- Patterns of high-functioning burnout, perfectionism, or people-pleasing
- Experiences of betrayal, abandonment, or relationship ruptures
- Internalized shame, guilt, or persistent self-doubt
- Emotional shutdown, numbness, or disconnection from the body
- Reactions that feel “out of proportion” but make sense in your nervous system
What to Expect in EMDR Therapy
If talk-based approaches haven’t felt like the right fit, or if you sense there’s something your body is still holding onto, EMDR offers a different way of working. It focuses less on verbal processing and more on supporting the nervous system as it connects memory, emotion, and present-day patterns. This approach may align with individuals who notice a disconnect between how they feel and what they logically know.
