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.

My clients come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed or lost. Often, they feel like something is wrong with them because they struggle so much to figure out who they are and how to function and feel like they belong in the world and within their relationships. They struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, and low self-esteem. Many also suffer from religious trauma/spiritual wounds that complicate their sense of self and trust in the world.

You may be struggling to find yourself, to know what you want to do or how you want to live. You may know that something needs to change but change feels impossible. You may feel like a square peg trying to fit in a round hole. You may have spent years feeling misunderstood, not good enough or insignificant. Emotions may feel overwhelming or you may spend most of your time feeling shut down and disconnected.

The clients I work best with are individuals who are feeling tired of being tired. They feel stressed and overwhelmed with self-criticism or the tornado of worries and bad dreams that are keeping them up at night. They work hard every day but feel like they should be doing more, working harder. These clients want something different but don't know what that is or how to get there. They want a deeper connection with themselves and others and are looking for more ease and joy in life.
