How EMDR Therapy Works
EMDR therapy step by step
1. we build safety first
before anything else, we make sure you feel safe and supported in session
trust is the foundation — EMDR doesn't work without it
we also build self-care strategies and stable supports you can lean on between sessions, since this work can bring up big emotions
2. we identify what needs healing
once you feel grounded, we start identifying the experiences that shaped you
this includes the big, obvious traumas, and the quieter ones too, like attachment wounds or moments that still shape how you respond today
your brain doesn't rank these differently, so we don't either
all of it matters
3. we make sure you're resourced
before we process anything, we make sure you have the coping tools and support in place to do it safely
4. we do the deeper work
this is where EMDR does what it does best — reducing the emotional charge of past events so they no longer run the show
the goal isn't just relief in the moment — it's calm, safety, and control that carry into your everyday life
EMDR Therapy FAQs
If you have more questions have a look at the FAQ page or reach out.
-
In an EMDR session, we’ll guide you to focus on specific memories or experiences while using bilateral stimulation, like taps or buzzies, to help your brain reprocess the trauma. You won’t need to relive every detail, EMDR focuses on the way the memory affects you now, helping your mind and body release the intensity of those past experiences safely.
-
EMDR is highly individualized, so the timeline varies. Some clients notice relief from distressing feelings or reactions within a few sessions, while deeper processing may take longer. Progress often comes in stages; small shifts in emotional intensity and bodily reactions build into lasting change over time.
-
No, you don’t have to go into every detail of your experiences. EMDR works by accessing the emotions, sensations, and beliefs tied to the memory, not by recounting the trauma like a story. This allows healing without retraumatizing or forcing you to relive what happened.
-
You know you’re ready for EMDR when you have some awareness of the patterns or memories that are affecting you and feel willing to explore them in a safe, supported space. Early sessions focus on building safety, coping skills, and self-regulation, so even if you’re unsure, we make sure you have the tools to feel grounded throughout the process.
-
EMDR therapy can be done both in person and online. Online EMDR is highly effective when conducted in a secure, private setting, and with guidance on how to stay safe and grounded throughout the session. Many clients find it convenient while still experiencing the full benefits of the process.
