Discover Healing with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
At A Better Version, I understand that past traumas and distressing life experiences can linger and impact your present well-being. That’s why I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a powerful and evidence-based approach to healing from emotional wounds.
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR therapy is a scientifically validated psychotherapy approach that enables individuals to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress resulting from disturbing life experiences. These experiences may stem from traumatic events, such as accidents, abuse, neglect, or natural disasters, but can also include distressing life events like divorce, job loss, or loss of a loved one.
How Does It Work?
During EMDR therapy sessions, I guide clients through a structured eight-phase treatment process. Central to EMDR therapy is bilateral stimulation, which can include side-to-side eye movements, hand tapping, or auditory tones. This bilateral stimulation helps the brain process distressing memories and emotions, leading to a reduction in the intensity of these experiences and the emergence of new insights and perspectives.

- Anxiety disorders
- Depression

What to Expect During Therapy?
Before beginning EMDR therapy, I will conduct a comprehensive assessment to ensure that it is a suitable treatment approach for you. Throughout the therapy process, you are actively involved in collaboratively identifying target memories or experiences to process.
Each session typically lasts 60 to 90 minutes. While the specifics may vary depending on your unique needs and circumstances, the ultimate goal is to help you process and integrate distressing memories, reduce emotional reactivity, and develop more adaptive coping mechanisms.
