Target the wounds from trauma, childhood neglect, toxic relationships, and life transitions

Virtual EMDR Therapy in Oklahoma and Michigan

Let’s get to the heart of your patterns, allowing you to gently untangle them, and rewrite your story.

Why should I consider EMDR?

Healing Trauma

Trauma can feel isolating and overwhelming, setting you apart from the people around you and leaving you feeling alone. EMDR is a proven method to help you process both sudden life-altering events and deeply rooted emotional wounds.

Emotional Wounds

Toxic relationships can leave marks that affect how you see yourself and connect with others. EMDR helps heal these wounds from the inside, empowering you to build trust and self-compassion, improving your relationship with yourself and others.

Targeting negative beliefs

Thoughts like “I’m not good enough” or “I’ll never be happy” can hold you back from the life you deserve. EMDR targets these beliefs, helping you reshape how you see yourself—with kindness and hope.

Feeling ‘stuck’

If it feels like you’re spinning your wheels in traditional therapy, EMDR can help you break through those blocks and continue your journey toward healing and growth. EMDR can help you make progress fast.

EMDR Integrated into Traditional Talk Therapy

I don’t believe you have to choose between EMDR and talk therapy—they can work together to help you achieve deeper, lasting healing.

Some wounds don’t respond to words alone. If you’ve been through emotional abuse, betrayal, childhood neglect, or destabilizing life changes, your nervous system may still be holding onto the impact, even if you’ve tried to “move on.”

EMDR helps the brain do what it’s wired to do: heal. It supports the reprocessing of memories that feel stuck, overwhelming, or tangled in shame, so they no longer hold power over your sense of self.

EMDR helps by -

Trauma isn’t always something we can “talk through.” EMDR helps reprocess experiences at a subconscious level.
If you’ve felt stuck in therapy, EMDR can help resolve the deeper roots of distress.
Many people notice shifts after just a few sessions, rather than months or years of revisiting painful memories.
EMDR helps release trauma not just from the mind, but from the nervous system, creating a greater sense of calm and ease.

Healing from Relationship Trauma, Emotional Abuse, and Identity Loss

When you’ve been through trauma in close relationships or lived through a shift in your identity, it affects more than just your emotions—it shapes how you see yourself, how safe you feel in your body, and how much you trust your own instincts. You may feel like you’re constantly on alert, questioning your reactions, or reliving painful moments.

EMDR helps you get to the root of these beliefs, reprocessing the pain behind them so they lose their grip. It’s not just about letting go of the past—it’s about reframing your story and reconnecting with a kinder, stronger sense of self.

If therapy hasn’t quite helped you move past certain emotional blocks, EMDR might offer relief. Alongside talk therapy, EMDR can help you go deeper—helping you address the patterns and memories that feel hardest to untangle. We can work on finding the sense of calm and clarity you have been craving. It’s about finding a way to feel more like yourself again.

FAQs on EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that uses bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements) to help process trauma and emotional wounds. It allows you to reprocess distressing memories and reduce the emotional charge associated with them, enabling you to heal and move forward.
In an EMDR session, you will focus on a distressing memory or belief while engaging in bilateral stimulation (using your eyes to track a ball across the screen or listening to alternating sounds). This replicates the healing process our brain uses during REM sleep, helping to process the memory and reduce its emotional impact. We allow your brain to free associate during this time, leading you to answers and realizations that help to resolve the distress.
Yes, EMDR is a safe, evidence-based therapy. Before we begin the reprocessing phase, we work hard to develop and improve emotional regulation skills to help you maintain access to a safe and calm state of mind. EMDR can be incredibly powerful, and for some people the reprocessing can be painful, but we work together to navigate this exploration safely.
If you're dealing with past trauma, negative self-beliefs, or emotional wounds that have been difficult to process, EMDR may be a good fit for you. EMDR is also very effective for trauma suffered before you had the words to describe it, such as in childhood. Schedule a consultation to learn more about how EMDR can help you heal and move forward.
EMDR is a versatile tool - it can be used to target a single traumatic memory or many. It is likely to provide you with more immediate relief, and alleviate symptoms faster than talk therapy alone. If you want to move fast then EMDR intensives may be right for you. This efficient approach can give quality results equivalent to months or years of traditional therapy in the matter of a week of so. Learn more here.
