Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Reprocessing the Past, Restoring the Present

Sometimes the body holds on to what the mind can’t quite process. EMDR helps the nervous system complete what trauma, stress, or overwhelm once interrupted - allowing your body and mind to find resolution and relief.

What Is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they no longer feel so charged or intrusive. Using bilateral stimulation - such as eye movements, tapping, or sound - EMDR supports your brain’s natural healing process, integrating the past so you can live more fully in the present.

How It Helps

EMDR has been extensively researched and shown to help with:

  • Trauma and PTSD.

  • Anxiety and panic.

  • Grief and loss.

  • Negative self-beliefs or shame.

  • Chronic stress and emotional overwhelm.

Rather than talking in circles about what happened, EMDR helps your system resolve it, reducing the emotional intensity and creating new, adaptive pathways.

What To Expect In Session

Sessions are paced carefully to ensure safety and stability. We’ll begin with preparation and resourcing, building tools to support regulation and resilience - before moving into reprocessing work. You’ll always be in control of the process, and we’ll go as slowly or as quickly as feels right for your system.

Who It's For

EMDR may be a fit if you:

  • Feel “stuck” in old patterns or emotional loops.

  • Experience strong reactions you can’t logically explain.

  • Sense that your body remembers things your mind would rather forget.

Healing doesn’t mean forgetting — it means integrating what’s been too heavy to carry alone.
