Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) relies on a client's own rapid, rhythmic eye movements, and is founded on the belief that these eye movements can weaken the intensity of emotionally charged memories. EMDR is most often used to treat PTSD or other traumas, but is also sometimes used for panic attacks, eating disorders, addictions, and anxiety. EMDR sessions can last up to 90 minutes, and usually starts with a client rating their level of distress. A therapist then typically moves their fingers in front of your face (or sometimes toe tapping or musical tones), asking you to follow along with your eyes, while you recall a traumatic event and all the sensations that come with it. You will gradually be guided by the therapist to shift thoughts from the traumatic experience to a more comforting one. The goal of EMDR is to make disturbing memories less immobilizing. Think this approach might be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s EMDR specialists today.

I work with individual adults who are looking to shift patterns in their lives. We typically focus on understanding what their problems are trying to communicate and work towards better ways of honoring those needs. Most folks that find me are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD or unwanted relationship issues but I have training across a variety of diagnosis.

As an EMDR therapist, I work with people whose parents and caregivers were unable to provide the emotional support and guidance they needed in childhood, even if they were well-intentioned. Ranging from emotional misattunement to outright abuse, these experiences lead to deep-seated (and sometimes unconscious) negative beliefs about oneself and others that precipitate depression, anxiety, unsatisfying careers, disconnected relationships, and difficulty feeling satisfaction and contentment.

Emotions hit you like unrelenting ocean waves, and you’re being tossed and thrown around trying to get above water for some air. You’re tired of feeling disconnected and disengaged from life, you want to feel secure in yourself and go after what you want. You want a life that feels good and important.
