Constantly worried and feeling hopeless about the future?

You never feel good enough at anything. You never feel accomplished no matter how much you succeed.

You are stuck on the past and it's all you can think about. It makes it difficult to focus on the present.

You often think:

"I'm not good enough"

"I'm unlovable"

"It's my fault"

You wonder if you can ever stop feeling this way about yourself. We are telling you that you can.

EMDR can be the solution to get "unstuck" in your head, so you can move forward.

How EMDR can help

EMDR is a evidence-based approach used to help process trauma. EMDR not only helps with trauma, it also helps with restructuring negative core beliefs about yourself.

EMDR helps process traumatic memories or beliefs that are "stuck" and stored in the mind and body.

This is why you are always ruminating over these memories or thoughts. This keeps you in a "fight" or "flight" state which wears on your body.

Through EMDR we can help you process those traumatic events with bilateral stimulation or tapping. You are gradually exposed to the event again and the memories are processed until they are no longer triggering for you.

The after effects of EMDR can be incredible.

By processing these memories, you will have a sense of relief.

Client we have worked with in the past have described it:

"I feel lighter, like a weight has been lifted"

"The memory is less triggering, having less of an emotional reaction to it"

"The details of the memory now seem blurry, not as vivid"

  • Questions to ask:

    • Do I have out-of-network benefits?

    • Is there an annual deductible that needs to be met and when does that deductible amount reset? (This is the amount that you have to pay out of pocket before your insurance starts paying)

    • What is my coinsurance after my deductible is met? (This is the percentage of the allowed amount that you are responsible for per session)

    • What is the allowed amount per session? (This is the maximum amount your insurance company will pay for the session)

    • Is there a limit on how many sessions I'm allowed a year?

    For example:

    Allowed amount* - $130

    $500 deductible* - you would pay $130 per session until you reach $500.

    30% coinsurance* - after $500 deductible is paid, you will pay 30% of the allowed amount

    30% x $130 = $39 will be your out-of-pocket cost per session after meeting deductible.

    *Allowed amount, deductible and coinsurance varies by insurance company and plans. Contact your insurance to find out what these amounts are.

  • It is entirely normal to feel hesitant about seeking therapy. However, it is essential to remember that therapy is not just for individuals who are experiencing severe mental health issues. Therapy can be helpful for anyone who is looking to improve their overall well-being, gain new tools to manage stress, and enhance their relationships.

    Even if you feel as though you can handle your problems, therapy can help you gain new insights into your life and provide you with new strategies to manage any difficulties that may arise. It is also an opportunity to speak with a trained professional who is unbiased and objective.

    Ultimately, the decision to seek therapy is a personal one. If you are unsure if therapy is right for you, we encourage you to contact us to schedule a consultation with one of our therapists. They can help you determine if therapy is the right choice for you.

  • A number of benefits are available from participating in therapy. Therapists can provide support, problem-solving skills, and enhanced coping strategies for issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, unresolved childhood issues, grief, stress management, body image issues and creative blocks.
