What is EMDR therapy?

EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing, is an evidence-based trauma therapy. Through bilateral stimulation — which can include taps, tones, or eye movements — EMDR therapy works to reorganize how distressing traumatic memories or emotions are stored in your brain. This process can reduce the emotional impact of these memories and help you feel less affected by them.

EMDR treatment was originally developed to treat the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma-related disorders, but it has also been shown to be effective for other mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, phobias, and grief. It’s known for being effective in a relatively short amount of time, making it a valuable option for those looking to overcome the lingering effects of trauma and move forward with their lives.

As you work through the EMDR therapy sessions, you begin to rediscover the resilient spirit within you that may have been overshadowed by pain and distress. EMDR therapy for trauma and emotional healing empowers you to heal at your own pace, providing a nurturing environment where you can find solace and clarity.

How does EMDR therapy help?

EMDR Therapy can help you:

If you’ve been struggling with symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, or depression, EMDR therapy can make a real difference. By working through your distressing memories, you’ll likely notice a significant decrease in the intensity and frequency of uncomfortable emotions, helping you feel more balanced and stable.
Gaining control over your emotions can be incredibly challenging, especially after experiencing distressing events. EMDR therapy can help you manage your emotional responses better, reducing the instances of overwhelming feelings and emotional outbursts, so you can feel more in control of your life.
The emotional distress tied to trauma, anxiety, and other challenges can be overwhelming. EMDR therapy helps reprocess unwanted thoughts and memories, making them less intense and allowing you to feel calmer and more at peace, so you can start enjoying life again.
Mental health challenges often leave you feeling confused and unsure about your thoughts and feelings. EMDR therapy can provide you with the clarity you need, helping you better understand your experiences and emotions, so that you can find answers to the questions that have been troubling you.
As you heal from mental health challenges through EMDR therapy, you’ll likely gain a deeper awareness of yourself. This newfound self-awareness will help you rediscover who you truly are, understand your values and goals, and pave the way for personal growth and fulfillment.

Our Approach

How EMDR therapy works

EMDR therapy is a structured approach designed to help you overcome emotional challenges and move forward with greater clarity and peace. The process involves eight stages, each playing a crucial role in your journey toward healing. By working through these stages together, we’ll address your traumatic memories, reduce their emotional impact, and help you build healthier, more positive beliefs about yourself and your future. Here’s a brief overview of what you can expect in each stage of EMDR therapy.

History & Treatment Planning

We start by understanding your past experiences, current challenges, and therapy goals. This helps us create a tailored treatment plan that addresses your unique needs.

Assessment

We identify specific targets for EMDR, such as distressing memories, negative beliefs, or challenging emotions. This sets clear objectives for our work together.

Using guided eye movements or other techniques, we process the identified targets, reducing their emotional intensity and helping you approach them with greater ease.

We strengthen positive beliefs and feelings to replace the negative ones, building a more resilient and empowered mindset for you.

Questions about EMDR therapy

Yes, EMDR therapy is covered by all of the insurances accepted in our practice. This means that if your insurance plan is among those we work with, your EMDR therapy sessions will be covered under your mental health benefits. It’s always a good idea to check with your insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage, including any co-pays or deductibles that may apply.
Yes, EMDR can be effectively conducted online. Research has shown that online EMDR therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions. Using secure video conferencing tools, we can guide you through the EMDR process from the comfort and safety of your own home. This option is particularly beneficial if you have mobility issues, live far from our practice, or simply prefer the convenience of remote therapy.
No, you do not need to talk about the distressing events in detail if you don’t feel comfortable doing so. EMDR therapy focuses on the Internal processing of distressing memories, recalling certain aspects of the distressing memories, while engaging in bilateral stimulation (i.e., eye movement, tapping). During sessions, you’ll be asked to recall certain aspects of the distressing memory in your mind while following guided bilateral stimulation like eye movements or tapping. This allows you to process the memory without having to verbalize the details, making it a more comfortable experience for many people.
The number of EMDR sessions you’ll need depends on several factors, including the number of traumatic events you wish to work on and the complexity of those events. Some people may start to feel relief after just a few sessions, while others may require more time to address multiple or deeply ingrained traumatic experiences. During our initial consultation, we’ll assess your specific situation and develop a personalized treatment plan that outlines a general timeline for your therapy.
