EMDR Therapist in
Victoria BC

Who EMDR helps

• Single-incident trauma (accidents, assaults, medical events)
• Complex trauma and attachment wounds
• Intrusive memories, nightmares, startle responses, and hypervigilance
• Shutdown, numbness, or feeling “not here” (freeze)
• Burnout with trauma features (overdrive, collapse, or both)

How we work

We start with stabilization. When you're ready, we'll reprocess memories in small, manageable pieces (titration), staying within your window of tolerance.

Session options: 50-minute sessions, or 90-minute extended sessions when a longer window feels helpful for EMDR work.

FAQs

• Is EMDR safe?
  Yes. I don't rush into reprocessing. We build resourcing and containment first, and we move at a speed your nervous system can handle. If something feels too much, we slow down, stabilize, and adjust.
• Do you offer intensive/longer sessions?
  Yes. I offer 90-minute sessions if you'd like more time for preparation, reprocessing, and integration in a single appointment. We'll decide together whether longer sessions are a good fit for you.
• Can we meet online?
  Yes. Many people find online EMDR works well, especially when you can be in a familiar space. We'll make sure you have a setup that feels private and supportive.
• Do you combine EMDR with other approaches?
  Often, yes. I frequently weave in somatic regulation, parts/attachment awareness, and CBT/DBT skills so you have practical tools alongside the deeper processing work. The goal is integration.
