EMDR

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is generally used in the treatment of individuals suffering from PTSD or a severe unresolved trauma (such as assault, abuse, combat, or an accident). The objective of EMDR therapy is to process these disturbing events in order to reduce their lingering effects and allow clients to develop healthy coping mechanisms. EMDR follows an eight-step protocol that includes elements of several other therapy approaches (psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, interpersonal, experiential, and body-centered) and involves external stimulation using bilateral eye movements, tones or taps.

As an EMDR trained clinician, I'll help you process trauma and distressing experiences that may be impacting your daily life. This powerful technique uses bilateral stimulation to facilitate the reprocessing of traumatic memories, allowing clients to reduce their emotional charge and find relief. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, compassion fatigue, or medical trauma, EMDR can be a transformative tool in your healing journey, helping you regain control and foster resilience.

I am trained in a type of somatic therapy called EMDR. This therapy was initially developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro and designed to treat symptoms of traumatic stress and traumatic life events. EMDR utilizes identification of life experiences that cause us present day distress and processes the present emotions, bodily sensations, and memories using bilateral stimulation.

EMDR is a powerful type of therapy that allows people to process intense things they’ve experienced, whether it’s stress, trauma, anxiety, or a variety of other experiences. EMDR helps the body and the mind move from a state of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn to a state of more grounded presence within oneself. I guide clients through addressing the negative beliefs they have about themselves to feeling deeper connection with their inner calm, compassion, and confidence.

EMDR uses eye movements to process information and memories of traumatic events, as well as has a calming effect on a stressed nervous system. The eye movements are thought to mimic the process of REM sleep while dreaming and appears to be crucial to organizing experience in an adaptive manner. When trauma disrupts this system, EMDR can help.

The mind can often heal itself naturally, in the same way as the body does. Much of this natural coping mechanism occurs during sleep, particularly during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Francine Shapiro developed Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in 1987, utilizing this natural process in order to successfully treat PTSD. Since then, EMDR has been used to effectively treat a wide range of mental health issues. I am EMDR-trained and in the process of becoming EMDR-certified.
