EMDR & trauma therapy

An evidence-based approach for trauma, anxiety, and overwhelming stress. You don't have to relive everything to heal from it.

Some experiences don't respond to talking alone. If something still shows up in your body, your reactions, or your relationships years later, EMDR is designed to help you process what got stuck.


We offer online EMDR therapy for trauma and PTSD to adults and adolescents in New York (including New York City) and Florida.

You might recognize:

  • Memories that still carry a physical charge
  • Knowing something intellectually but not feeling it
  • Talk therapy that helped — up to a point
  • Reactions that feel bigger than the moment calls for
  • Beliefs like “I'm not safe” or “it was my fault”
  • Avoidance that's quietly shrinking your life
  • Feeling stuck on an experience you've already understood

When EMDR can help

  • Single-incident trauma like accidents, medical events, or loss
  • Repeated or developmental trauma
  • Painful experiences that were never fully processed
  • Moments of helplessness the body still remembers
  • Anxiety and self-beliefs rooted in old experiences

EMDR doesn't require retelling every detail — your brain does the healing once it's given the chance.

How therapy helps.

What we mean by trauma

Trauma is about what an experience left behind. It can come from something you witnessed, something that happened to you, or something that built up over time. Childhood experiences, relationship wounds, medical trauma, loss: all of it can leave traces.

If an experience still activates you in your thoughts, your body, or your sense of safety, it's worth working with. Even if you're not sure it "counts."

How EMDR works

EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (eye movements, taps, or sounds) while you hold a targeted memory in mind. This lets your nervous system process what got frozen in place, which reduces the emotional charge attached to that memory.

You don't have to narrate the event in detail. For many people, it's faster and more direct than talk therapy alone.
