EMDR Therapy

Reconnect with yourself and heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, and burnout.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that heals trauma. It is particularly effective for dealing with anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges that stem from difficult or overwhelming experiences.

EMDR works by facilitating the brain’s natural ability to process and heal from memories that are stuck or unprocessed, often as a result of trauma. Through a structured eight-phase protocol, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation—typically in the form of guided eye movements, taps, or sounds—to help your brain reprocess memories in a way that reduces their emotional charge. This process allows you to process and reframe distressing memories, so they no longer have the same emotional weight or hold over your present life.

As a therapist, I create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore these difficult memories at your own pace. My goal is to support you in accessing deep healing by helping you release the past’s grip, while fostering self-compassion and a sense of empowerment moving forward.

You Deserve Deeper Support.
