Heal from Trauma & Rewire Unhelpful Patterns

Trauma, anxiety, and distressing memories can feel overwhelming, but healing is possible. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an evidence-based approach that helps reprocess painful experiences, reduce emotional distress, and create lasting change. At Clariel Therapy, we use EMDR to support clients in breaking free from the past and moving toward a healthier, more empowered future.

What Is EMDR Therapy?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they no longer feel as overwhelming. Using guided bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, tapping, or sound—EMDR helps you process trauma, reframe negative beliefs, and build resilience.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR allows you to heal at a deep neurological level without having to relive painful experiences in detail.

How EMDR Can Help

EMDR is highly effective for a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including:

• Trauma & PTSD – Process past trauma and reduce distressing symptoms.

• Anxiety & Panic Attacks – Rewire anxious thought patterns and increase emotional regulation.

• Depression & Low Self-Esteem – Address deep-rooted beliefs that contribute to feelings of worthlessness.

• Relationship Challenges & Attachment Wounds – Heal from past relational pain and develop healthier connections.

• Phobias & Fears – Reduce emotional reactivity to triggers and fears.

• Chronic Stress & Burnout – Release stored stress and create a sense of inner calm.

What to Expect in an EMDR Session

At Clariel Therapy, EMDR sessions follow a structured yet flexible approach, tailored to your unique needs:

1. Assessment & Preparation – We discuss your history, identify key memories, and build coping skills.

2. Targeting Distressing Memories – We guide you through bilateral stimulation (eye movements, tapping, or sound) while you recall a distressing experience.

3. Processing & Reframing – Your brain naturally reprocesses the memory, reducing emotional intensity and shifting negative beliefs.

4. Integration & Healing – We help you reinforce positive beliefs and apply new insights to your daily life.

Can EMDR Be Combined with Other Therapies?

Yes! At Clariel Therapy, we often integrate EMDR with other therapeutic approaches like Attachment Theory Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques to provide a comprehensive healing experience.
