EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing
I provide virtual EMDR sessions using a secure online platform. I can provide telehealth therapy sessions only to individuals living in the state of California.
I offer EMDR as a specialized treatment for clients seeking to process past trauma, distressing memories, and negative beliefs that impact their present life. This evidence-based modality has been shown to help clients heal quickly and effectively. If you feel stuck in patterns related to past trauma or anxiety, EMDR might be a powerful option for you.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process and heal from distressing memories, particularly those related to trauma. It is effective for conditions like PTSD, anxiety, and emotional difficulties.
Traumatic memories are often stored in the brain in a fragmented way, causing them to feel current rather than past events. This can lead to heightened emotional and physical responses, nervous system dysregulation, and difficulty forming healthy connections. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, tapping, or auditory cues—to activate the brain's natural healing process, allowing the brain to reprocess and integrate these memories more healthily, reducing emotional distress and promoting stability.
Research shows that EMDR often leads to faster relief than traditional talk therapy, with many clients experiencing improved emotional regulation, reduced anxiety, and better connection with others.
