EMDR Therapy in Scottsdale, AZ
Trauma-informed EMDR integrated into relational, experiential therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be a powerful approach for processing traumatic or overwhelming experiences that continue to shape emotional responses, self-perception, and relationships. Here, EMDR is integrated with emotion-focused and relational therapy, allowing processing to unfold at a pace that feels safe and attuned.
HOW EMDR IS USED
Rather than approaching trauma as something to “push through,” EMDR work here emphasizes preparation, emotional regulation, and relational safety.
We pay attention to emotional responses, body sensations, and meaning as memories are processed. This allows traumatic experiences to be integrated rather than re-experienced in isolation.
EMDR THERAPY MAY BE HELPFUL IF YOU
Feel emotionally activated by reminders of the past
Carry shame, fear, or self-blame linked to earlier experiences
Notice trauma impacting relationships or sense of self
Want trauma work that is attuned and relational
