Adjunctive EMDR Therapy

We offer adjunctive EMDR therapy as a unique way to support your healing journey! You might be wondering, what exactly does that mean? Adjunctive Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a collaborative approach that works alongside your existing therapist to help you break free from feeling stuck and achieve quicker relief.

Our therapists incorporate other powerful healing modalities, such as IFS-informed EMDR, with EMDR, to effectively address and heal those persistent emotions, sensations, and behavioral patterns.

Many individuals turn to adjunctive EMDR when they find they have made progress in talk therapy but feel stuck in negative emotions or behaviors. Together, our skilled EMDR therapists can work with you on your specific goals and collaborate with your current therapist, helping you achieve the results you want faster.

We’re pleased to offer adjunctive EMDR virtually for clients located in Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Colorado, and Florida. We also have a limited number of spots available for in-person therapy in Paoli, PA. We’re here for you on this journey!

Adjunctive EMDR might be for you if…

You have been in therapy for years but getting nowhere or moving too slowly.

You long for healing and to feel light and free for once in your life.

You’ve been trying everything and practicing good coping strategies, yet you still feel stuck.

You cognitively understand new things, yet your body is still reacting or feeling confused.

You’re curious about how EMDR therapy can help as you work with your primary talk therapist.

You need more efficient support as the busy professional and/or parent with kids who have too much on their plate and need change faster.

No matter your reasons, an EMDR Intensive might be the right fit for you.
