Your Therapy JourneyWhat to expect
Backed By ResearchWhy EMDR therapy works
EMDR helps your brain process what feels stuck
EMDR works by activating your brain’s natural ability to process difficult experiences. Instead of staying frozen or overwhelming, memories become easier to understand and less emotionally triggering. This allows you to move forward without carrying the same intensity.
It targets the root, not just the symptoms
Many emotional reactions come from earlier experiences that were never fully processed. EMDR helps you access those moments safely and shift the beliefs and patterns connected to them. When the root changes, the symptoms often ease as a result.
EMDR reduces emotional intensity without retelling the whole story
Unlike talk therapy alone, EMDR doesn’t require you to explain every detail of what happened. The process allows your brain to reprocess memories internally, lowering the emotional charge while helping you gain clarity and relief.
In EMDR therapy, your therapist will guide you through a structured process that helps your brain safely reprocess difficult memories. You’ll check in regularly to ensure you feel grounded and in control throughout the session. Over time, many people notice that distressing memories feel less intense and easier to move through.
