EDMR Therapy for

Relationship Healing

When couples work reaches a standstill due to one partner’s unresolved trauma or emotional block, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) can provide a path forward. Trauma, whether recent or complex, can disrupt the brain’s processing of distressing experiences, leaving certain memories, beliefs, and emotions “stuck” in time. These unprocessed “sore spots” often re-emerge in close relationships, sparking intense reactions such as anger, anxiety, feelings of rejection, or emotional shutdown. Even with a caring partner, past relational wounds can lead one to respond defensively, complicating attempts at closeness and understanding.

EMDR therapy, which can be integrated with individual or couples counseling, specifically targets and reprocesses these painful memories, allowing the brain to form a more adaptive understanding. This shift can foster a greater sense of safety and emotional clarity in relationships, helping individuals to connect with their partner more openly. Unlike hypnotherapy, EMDR keeps clients fully aware and engaged throughout the session, ensuring they are conscious and present as they work through these experiences. EMDR sessions are available both in person and via telehealth, making support accessible no matter where you are.
