EMDR Therapy & Intensives for Moms

If you’ve experienced trauma - whether it’s birth trauma, medical trauma, loss, or unresolved pain from earlier in life - it can quietly shape how you show up in motherhood. Maybe you find yourself stuck in patterns of anxiety, overreaction, or emotional shutdown, even though part of you knows you’re safe. That’s where EMDR therapy can help.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a research-backed approach that helps your brain reprocess painful or overwhelming experiences so they no longer have the same emotional intensity. You don’t have to relive every detail - you just need a safe, supportive space to begin healing.

  • In weekly 45-minute virtual sessions, we’ll identify and work through past experiences that continue to impact your emotional responses today. We’ll go at a pace that feels safe and grounded for you, using EMDR alongside resourcing and regulation techniques to help you feel more steady and in control.

  • For moms who want to make faster progress or can’t commit to weekly therapy, EMDR intensives offer a focused, time-efficient path to healing. These extended sessions allow you to dive deeper without having to pause and reset every week - perfect for addressing one specific trauma or making meaningful headway in a short period.

EMDR Intensives are Ideal if You:

  • Are holding onto a birth trauma, loss, or medical event you can’t shake

  • Want more support without long-term weekly commitment

  • Feel ready to do deeper emotional work in a structured way

We'll collaborate to determine if standard sessions or an intensive is the right fit for your goals, energy, and season of life.
