Trauma can hit like a ton of bricks, leaving a lasting mark from any sudden, negative experience.
Trauma isn’t one-size-fits-all; it can range from a mild bump in the road to something that rocks your world, throwing everything off balance—even your physical health.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) works by tapping into your brain’s natural healing process, helping you reprocess stuck traumatic memories so they lose their power over you.
Using eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, it clears the path for your mind to move forward and find peace.
EMDR therapy is evidence-based brain therapy that uses the back-and-forth movements of the eyes to safely “reprocess” difficult memories.
EMDR vs Talk Therapy

But here’s where EMDR & Brainspotting Online Healing comes into play.
By mixing EMDR & Brainspotting with some solid strategies from Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and a dash of mindfulness, you’re looking at a path to genuine relief.

EMDR Frequently Asked Questions
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a therapy that helps individuals process traumatic memories.

Every person is so different. Some people say they start to feel better by their first appointment, while others say they start to feel better by their 3rd or 4th appointment.
EMDR is not hypnosis, nor will you be forced to relive your past. During an EMDR therapy session, you are fully aware and in control. In EMDR therapy, your counselor will help you get into a more relaxed and grounded state of mind. You will be guided to move beyond the analytical mind. It is in this state that your brain is able to reprocess the targeted memories.
All forms of therapy, especially trauma therapy, can make symptoms worse at the outset. That’s because until now, you’ve probably been repressing your traumatic memories and feelings. While it’s good to process difficult things in session, it’s hard to turn them off” once session is over. To help with this, EMDR therapists teach skills to help clients compartmentalize. You end each of our sessions by doing a visual to help you put away any disturbing thoughts or memories. Another major component of EMDR is coping skills. You work on finding and practicing skills that help you deal with symptoms when they’re most likely to arise, such as the evening after a session. In summary, EMDR is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals process and heal from past traumatic experiences, providing relief from emotional distress while allowing individuals to maintain their memories. It does so by utilizing the brain’s innate healing mechanisms, making it a valuable tool in the field of trauma therapy
