What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain heal from emotional wounds caused by trauma. It uses gentle bilateral stimulation -- often eye movements -- to support reprocessing of painful memories. 

How EMDR Helps

Childhood Trauma

Childhood trauma can leave lasting emotional imprints that affect how you see yourself and relate to others. EMDR helps by: 

  • Reducing the emotional charge of traumatic memories
  • Shifting core beliefs like "I'm not safe" or "It was my fault"
  • Helping you feel more in control of your emotions and reactions
  • Creating new, healthier patterns in how you relate to yourself and others

Grief (Including Pregnancy Loss)

  • Processing overwhelming emotions like guilt, sadness, or anger
  • Releasing the shock or numbness often tied to loss
  • Making room for peace, meaning, and connection
  • Honoring the story of your grief while supporting healing

  • Building coping tools and grounding techniques before processing begins
  • Gently targeting and reprocessing distressing memories
  • Ongoing support as your brain integrates new insights and healing

  • Feel less triggered or overwhelmed
  • Regain confidence and calm
  • Build resilience and self-compassion
