Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
Compassionate, evidence-based care to help you reprocess trauma, calm your nervous system, and reconnect with your life.
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to briefly focus on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.
Many people seek EMDR therapy when intrusive memories, flashbacks, or nightmares feel impossible to control, when they feel constantly on edge or easily startled, or when shame, guilt, and negative beliefs trace back to a painful experience.
At Insight Therapy and Wellness, EMDR is not about reliving the worst moments of your story again and again. It is about helping your brain reprocess what happened, so those memories stop feeling like they are happening right now, and start feeling like they belong in the past.
We take time to:
- Understand your story at your pace, without pressure
- Build the internal resources and coping skills you need before processing begins
- Identify the specific memories, beliefs, and sensations trauma has left behind
- Use bilateral stimulation to help your brain safely reprocess traumatic material
- Move at a pace that feels safe and empowering
- Coordinate care with other providers if needed
When helpful, our team can also integrate additional support such as individual therapy, evaluations, or psychiatric care to ensure your healing is fully supported.
