EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured therapy that helps clients process and heal from distressing memories and trauma. I use EMDR to support clients in working through identity-based trauma, anxiety, shame, and stuck points — often combining it with creative or narrative approaches tailored to each individual. You don’t need to “relive” your trauma — we move at your pace with plenty of grounding and support.
