Certified EMDR Therapist Colorado
Reprocess the past. Find relief in the present.
EMDR therapy can help you release the emotional weight of trauma, anxiety, or painful beliefs—without needing to relive every detail. Whether you’re carrying a specific memory or a pattern that won’t let go, EMDR is a powerful tool to help you move forward with greater ease.
What Is EMDR Therapy?
A proven, effective approach to trauma and anxiety.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy that helps people heal from trauma, loss, and other distressing life experiences. It helps the brain reprocess “stuck” memories, beliefs, and experiences—so they no longer feel overwhelming or in charge of you. It’s often used to treat trauma, PTSD, anxiety, loss, and other emotional wounds that talk therapy alone may not fully address.
With EMDR, you don’t need to talk through every detail. Instead, we activate and process experiences in a way that supports your nervous system and allows true healing to take place.
How EMDR Works
You don’t have to talk through every detail to heal.
EMDR helps you reprocess stuck memories, beliefs, or emotions so they no longer hold the same emotional charge. It’s less about retelling your story—and more about shifting how your nervous system responds to it.
Here’s what the process might look like:
▸ Identify what’s stuck
Together, we’ll explore what memories, sensations, or beliefs are showing up over and over in the present and keeping you stuck.
▸ Activate the memory
Using gentle bilateral stimulation—like eye movements or tapping—we’ll guide your brain into a state where healing can happen naturally.
▸ Reprocess and release
Your brain creates new connections and insights, helping the memory feel less charged and more resolved—so you can move forward with more ease and clarity.
My Approach to EMDR Therapy
Trauma-informed, holistic, and tailored to you.
As a certified EMDR therapist in Colorado, I approach this work with deep respect for your individual story. EMDR is powerful on its own—but I also integrate it with other healing modalities to support your whole self. That might look like somatic practices to regulate your nervous system, parts work to understand inner dynamics, and attachment-based insight to heal relational wounds.
We’ll go at your pace. You’ll always be in control of the process, and we’ll take time to build safety and trust before beginning EMDR. You don’t have to do this alone—I’m here to walk alongside you.
What To Expect
Consultation
We’ll talk for 20 minutes to discuss what you’re looking for, answer your questions, and explore whether EMDR is the right approach for you.
Reprocessing Work
When ready, we’ll begin reprocessing. I’ll guide you through the process at a pace that feels safe, steady, and responsive to your needs.
Preparation Sessions
At the start of EMDR, we’ll build trust, explore your history, and learn coping skills and grounding tools so you feel supported and in control during later work.
Is EMDR Therapy Right for You?
EMDR can support you if you’re navigating:
▸ PTSD or complex trauma
▸ Childhood emotional wounds
▸ Anxiety or panic
▸ Grief or major life transitions
▸ Self-doubt or negative beliefs
▸ Emotional triggers or reactivity
▸ Relationship patterns linked to the past
You don’t need a formal diagnosis or a clear “reason” to benefit from EMDR. If something feels stuck, this therapy might help you move through it.

EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is a type of therapy that focuses on helping individuals work through distressing memories from past experiences while simultaneously performing a bilateral stimulation activity.
EMDR is based on the idea that traumatic memories can become "stuck" in the brain and the bilateral stimulation helps the brain process and integrate these memories in a healthier way.
EMDR is an evidence-based treatment, meaning it has been extensively researched and shown to be effective for treating PTSD and other trauma-related conditions, such as grief and anxiety.
