EMDR Therapy
EMDR Therapy
“When insight isn’t enough, EMDR helps your mind and body find resolution that lasts.”
What to Expect
EMDR sessions are 60–90 minutes. Using guided bilateral stimulation, we help your brain process stuck memories. Many clients notice meaningful shifts within just a few sessions.
“For the first time, the memory doesn’t control me. I can think about it without my chest tightening.”
Understanding EMDR
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) helps your brain reprocess distressing memories so they no longer feel overwhelming. It’s a relief that your whole system can feel.
Some experiences don’t just leave behind memories. EMDR therapy helps you tune into what your body might still be holding onto, especially when certain memories don’t have clear words or stories. Noticing and integrating the body’s responses is an important part of healing, so that both your mind and body can return to a shared sense of safety.
You’ll not only connect certain patterns and develop insight, you’ll begin to feel the shift in your body. Change becomes something you experience, not just something you understand. It’s the difference between knowing where certain patterns come from and finally feeling like it no longer controls you.
How It Works
The EMDR Process
EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that helps your brain and body reprocess stuck memories so they no longer hold the same emotional charge. It supports your nervous system and mind in integrating new information.
You’ll still remember what happened, but it won’t carry the same weight. We’ll begin by building a strong foundation of trust, safety, and resourcing skills. When you’re ready, we’ll move into EMDR reprocessing, always at a pace that feels right for you.
Many clients notice their responses feel less automatic, anxiety decreases, anger feels more manageable, confidence increases, and relationships start to feel different in a meaningful way.
Your Pace, Your Process
We always begin with stabilization and grounding before any reprocessing. You’ll never be pushed beyond what feels safe. Every step is collaborative.
“I didn’t think I could feel this different. The weight I’d been carrying just started to lift.”

Common Questions
Frequently Asked
How many EMDR sessions do people typically need?
It depends on history, goals, and pace. Some feel noticeable relief within a few sessions; complex trauma often benefits from longer treatment.
What does an EMDR session feel like?
Grounded, structured, and paced for safety, but also real. EMDR can bring up emotions as memories and sensations shift, yet it’s designed so you stay supported and in control while your nervous system releases what it no longer needs to hold.
Can EMDR help with relationship triggers or attachment styles?
Absolutely, and I’ve seen great relief and changes with this — especially when current reactions are linked to earlier experiences or relational and attachment wounds.
Do you offer EMDR in Miami Beach and online?
Yes. We offer EMDR therapy in-person at our Miami Beach office and virtually for clients throughout the state of Florida. Virtual EMDR sessions are just as effective and allow for greater scheduling flexibility.
“You deserve to reclaim your power. To respond instead of react. To feel grounded in your body, steady in your relationships, and clear in your mind.”
As an EMDR therapist, my role is to provide that container that allows your nervous system to feel safe enough to release what’s been held for too long, creating space for healing, integration, and self-trust.
When meeting a new therapist, it can take time to build trust. Trust and safety are both essential pieces of the puzzle, and it happens at your own pace.
It’s not about forgetting what happened. We’ll honor every part of you and your story, while opening the door to a life that feels more connected, embodied, and anchored.
