EMDR Therapy NYC & Online: Transforming A Range Of Mental Health Challenges Beyond Trauma

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is widely recognized for its effectiveness in treating trauma, but its benefits extend far beyond small traumas, big traumas and PTSD symptoms. At this boutique NYC private psychotherapy practice, I use EMDR not only to heal the past, but to recalibrate the nervous system, disrupt limiting beliefs, and spark deep psychological change across a wide spectrum of mental health concerns. We learned during the pandemic that EMDR could be successfully administered virtually, and many of us have continued this practice.

Whether you're a creative, professional, or sensitive soul navigating the pressure of modern life, EMDR can help you find your way back to balance, clarity, and emotional freedom. This is transformational therapy for those who want more than symptom relief. EMDR gives you a way to reconnect with your power, your wholeness, and your story—on your terms. Sessions available in NYC or online across New York State and globally. You don’t have to stay stuck. Let’s begin the work of integration and lasting change with EMDR Therapy.

This NYC private psychotherapy practice offers EMDR as a powerful complement to traditional talk therapy—deepening the work, quickening insight, and helping clients move beyond the grip of old patterns. While talk therapy offers a meaningful space for reflection and growth, EMDR gently guides the nervous system toward lasting emotional resolution. Together, they create a fuller picture of healing: one that honors your mind, your story, and your resilience. Clients often find themselves feeling more grounded, empowered, and emotionally spacious—able to live, love, and lead with greater authenticity and ease. EMDR can be a stand-alone practice or a complement to traditional talk therapy & CBT.

Creating Your Daily Refuge With The “Safe Place” Exercise

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is one of the more powerful and transformative therapies designed to help individuals heal from distressing memories and traumatic experiences. As a licensed psychotherapist in New York, I have been providing EMDR therapy for many years. While I enjoy offering other therapeutic modalities, I consistently return to EMDR because it is so effective! One of its essential elements is introduced in the initial protocol of resourcing, and it’s called “Safe Place.” In EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, the Safe Place exercise is a foundational technique often used in the early phases of treatment. It is designed to help the client access a mental or emotional "safe space" that they can visualize when experiencing distressing memories or emotions during the therapeutic process.

EMDR Therapy: Effective Results As Quickly As Possible

Do you feel stuck in your life, unable to move beyond a difficult experience? Or you’ve achieved some symptom reduction in traditional therapy and are now ready to do some next-level healing? EMDR is a powerful and transforming treatment to relieve intense symptoms and suffering so you can finally heal and move forward in your life. You can also keep your therapist and do EMDR as an adjunct healing modality.

EMDR Seems Strange And Confusing, Why Is That?

It’s okay to not fully understand this remarkable therapy because even experts don’t fully understand the magic behind EMDR Treatment, or the neurobiological changes that accompany any healing therapy modality for that matter. It is a procedure with protocol and steps that need to be followed to ensure efficacy. Moving your eyes or tapping seems a bit strange, but once you begin your EMDR treatment, this will all make much more sense. EMDR is often described as a “new” therapy. It is not a new therapy and has actually been around for about thirty years. I’ve been practicing EMDR for a very long time now and I continue to be wowed by this modality, especially when other forms of treatment are woven into EMDR sessions.
