taking the charge out of painful memories  

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a widely researched and effective treatment for trauma and difficult life experiences that engages your brain’s natural healing mechanisms to “unstick” and take the charge out of painful memories. Unlike traditional therapy, EMDR does not require talking in detail about the disturbing events or memories and can yield faster results than talk therapy alone. Learn more by visiting the EMDR International Association website and watching this video to see what an EMDR session is like. Whether you have clearly identified traumatic events in your past or struggle with strong negative beliefs about yourself, we can talk about how EMDR could benefit your healing journey.


 

yes, virtual emdr is effective too

Whether you’re considering doing EMDR remotely due to location or convenience, one thing the pandemic taught us is that this work can still produce strong clinical outcomes via telehealth. We can utilize the dual attention focus that is a key component of EMDR in a variety of ways during video sessions. I offer the option to rent an easy to use set of ‘remote tappers’ that can enhance our work together and bring the most of the therapeutic experience into the comfort of your home.


 

COnsultation for therapists

Want to feel more confident bringing EMDR into your practice or to strengthen your existing skills? Whether you’re seeking EMDRIA certification or simply hope to improve your ability to use EMDR with new or existing clients, I can help you develop the flexibility and creativity to adapt a variety of protocols to meet unique client needs and to be nimble with making judgment calls in the moment during sessions. We can address some common challenges involved in each phase, including readiness, treatment planning, and how to work with getting “stuck” while reprocessing (I use parts work!). As an EMDRIA Certified Therapist and Consultant In Training (CIT) I offer affordable Individual and Group Consultation options. Find more information about upcoming groups here and contact me when you’re ready to work together to elevate your skills.
