For people who carry too much and feel too alone.

Yes. Symptoms that show up long after the event are common, and they respond to treatment. Understanding your triggers is the first step, and EMDR does the rest.

No. We treat the full range of trauma's effects — anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, numbness — whether or not they add up to a diagnosis.

No. We start with safety and skills. EMDR doesn't require graphic detail to work — we follow your pace.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an eight-phase, research-backed therapy that helps your brain file painful experiences so they stop popping up uninvited. Simple traumas can resolve in a few sessions; complex histories take longer. It's powerful, and it isn't magic — your therapist tailors it to you.

No. You're in full control the whole time — we'll even teach you how to signal us to stop.

You won't white-knuckle through your worst memories. Before any memory work you learn to shift into calm fast and build “resources” to turn the intensity down. That preparation phase can be long if your history is complex — and it's the part most therapists skip.

Most people start weekly, then space sessions out as they get closer to finishing. You and your therapist decide together in the first session.

EMDR has a distinct beginning and end. You're done when you truly believe something positive about yourself — and you can see it in your reactions, your relationships, and your relaxed body.

We're self-pay and provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Our nonprofit sliding scale is on the Rates page.
