  • EMDR therapy

    As one of my clients recently put it, EMDR is the gift that keeps on giving.

    Ther is the obvious benefit in the session when EMDR reprocessing helps to desensitize a painful memory and help someone find a more adaptive belief about themselves, other or the world. This gift is amazing.

    And the more subtle gift is what we tell clients to be prepared for, the fact that the brain continues that healing outside of the session. There are profound ripple effects of what is done in session.

    Often these effects are not big, in your face changes, but they can be profound. And it’s often not until someone comes in the next week and we look back that those effects become obvious.

    Maybe it’s not getting triggered the way they would have in the past, maybe it’s saying no when that’s always been a struggle, maybe their body isn’t reacting the way it did before.

    EMDR is an amazing gift. I see it everyday in my practice and I’ve experienced it in my own life.

    I’ve seen it change the way clinicians treat trauma and attachment wounds when they get trained in EMDR.

    Precision EMDR Academy is having another basic training in the fall for any clinicians interested and I will be facilitating in the Spring 2026. Click here for more info.

    Also, for any EMDR clinicians interested in learning to work with Dissociative Identity Disorder, stay tuned for more information on my webinar!
