EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing)

EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that can help you heal from trauma and emotional pain, often more quickly than you might expect. By connecting the dots between past experiences and your present reactions, EMDR helps you move forward without being held back by the shadows of the past.

 
 

How EMDR Can Help

Traumatic experiences and negative events can get stuck in our minds, causing flashbacks, self-doubt, and overwhelming emotions that disrupt our daily lives and relationships. These memories and feelings may leave us feeling frozen, disconnected, or constantly on edge. EMDR uses guided eye movements or tapping to help your brain naturally reprocess these memories. This technique reduces the emotional charge around them, so you can experience life more fully and authentically in the present.

My Approach to EMDR

I’m not just an EMDR therapist; I’m someone who’s been through EMDR myself, soI know firsthand how transformative this process can be. I offer a safe, affirming space where you can explore your trauma and heal at your own pace. My approach to EMDR is to help you connect to your true values, freeing you from fear and the outdated, negative narratives that no longer serve you. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or the unique challenges of being queer or nonmonogamous, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

The Impact of EMDR

EMDR has the potential to change the way you:

  • See the World: Survivors of trauma often feel like nothing good can come in the future. EMDR opens you up to new possibilities and a more positive outlook.

  • Connect with Others: Healing old wounds allows you to build deeper, more authentic relationships, and avoid having the same relationship problems over and over.

  • Feel About Yourself: Letting go of negative self-beliefs and embracing your true self makes room for self-love, confidence, and pride.

EMDR can feel almost magical in how it allows your brain to heal itself, transforming pain into strength and resilience. Research shows that EMDR can create lasting, meaningful change for those struggling with trauma and emotional distress.
