Release the Past, Restore the Present
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a well-researched, neuroscience-backed method that helps people process trauma, anxiety, and emotional triggers. While traditionally delivered in a clinical setting, I use EMDR-inspired techniques in a more integrative, holistic framework — blending bilateral stimulation with breath, tapping, and intuitive somatic awareness.
You don’t need to retell your whole story. You simply bring a memory, pattern, or feeling into awareness — and through gentle bilateral techniques, we allow your system to begin reprocessing it safely and gradually.
What Does an EMDR-Inspired Session Look Like?
Together, we guide your attention between sensations, memories, and the present moment using bilateral movements such as eye tracking, rhythmic tapping, or audio cues. This supports your brain in moving emotional material from a reactive state into a more integrated and calm one.
This therapy is especially powerful for trauma, phobias, and ingrained emotional responses — but it’s also highly effective for nervous system regulation, resilience-building, and restoring safety in the body.

Integrative and Gentle
Rather than using EMDR in isolation, I combine it with other modalities like EFT, Reiki, or Reflexology depending on your needs. This allows for deeper safety and a more embodied, compassionate process — especially for those who have found traditional therapy too intense or cognitively overwhelming.
