Nothing else has worked to help you heal.
You always feel on edge, ready for something bad to happen. The echoes of childhood trauma, complex trauma, and PTSD reverberate through your mind and body, leaving you trapped in a relentless cycle of pain.
The memories are vivid, the emotions raw, and the anxiety is always there. It feels like a never-ending nightmare, unable to escape the past.
Every day is a struggle. Your thoughts race uncontrollably, plagued by images and sensations that transport you back to traumatic moments.
Despite your best efforts to distract yourself or push the thoughts away, they persist, gnawing at your peace and sanity.
Your mind may be filled with:
- Traumatic events from your childhood
- Fear of never feeling safe again
- Guilt and shame associated with the trauma
- Constant hypervigilance and anxiety
- Overwhelming feelings of helplessness
There is a way out.
Imagine a life where the shadows of your past no longer dictate your present. A life where you can experience peace, confidence, and a genuine sense of safety.
Picture yourself waking up without the weight of trauma pressing down on your chest, able to enjoy the simple pleasures of life without fear or anxiety.
EMDR as a Solution:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful therapeutic approach that addresses the root causes of your trauma, helping you process and integrate painful memories in a way that diminishes their hold on you.
EMDR stimulates the brain's natural healing processes. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps to reprocess traumatic memories, reducing their emotional intensity.
This process breaks the cycle of trauma-related thoughts and behaviors, freeing you from their grip.
After Effects of Using EMDR from Past Success Cases:
Our clients who have undergone EMDR therapy report profound changes in their lives. Many experience a significant reduction in symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression. They find themselves experiencing:
- Reduced emotional distress
- Less avoidance of triggers
- Higher frustration tolerance
- Deeper, more fulfilling relationships
- Reduced depression, anxiety, and fear
Why our practice uses EMDR and our experience with it:
We use EMDR because we have seen firsthand its transformative power. With more than half of our team trained in EMDR techniques, we have helped numerous clients find relief and healing through this modality.
We believe in a holistic, depth-oriented approach that integrates EMDR with other therapeutic modalities to provide comprehensive, personalized care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our rates vary depending on the therapist's level of licensure. Sessions with our associates are priced between $100 and $150, while sessions with licensed therapists range from $150 to $225 per session.
We are considered "Out-Of-Network" providers, which means we do not accept any insurance directly. We've made the decision to work directly with our clients regarding payment, and they are very satisfied with this arrangement.
If you would still like to use your insurance, then you can potentially do so if your insurance plan has “Out-Of-Network” benefits. The way that would work is, you would pay for therapy at the time of the session, and then we will provide you with a “superbill” that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
We recommend calling your insurance company to confirm if your insurance policy has OON benefits for mental health services.
Otherwise you can choose to see us privately and not involve your insurance at all. See why many of our clients choose this option below.
Most of our clients actually prefer to work with us privately and not involve their insurance at all. This is because in order to use your insurance for counseling, a mental health diagnosis is required, and this gets attached to your record. If your challenges don’t meet the threshold of a diagnosis, then insurance companies can choose not to cover your therapy.
Insurance can put limitations on the number of counseling sessions you can have, prior to truly completing the process.
An insurance company has a right to call the therapist and ask how sessions are going
At any point they can say that therapy is no longer medically necessary and cancel the coverage
If you have more questions about this, or have questions about finding your OON benefits and would like to discuss, then we recommend reaching out to us page and we'd be happy to answer any questions.
Therapy sessions typically last 50 minutes to one hour, although the duration may vary depending on individual needs and therapist availability. Your therapist will discuss session length and frequency with you during your initial appointment.
We offer a comprehensive range of therapy services including individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, and group therapy. Our therapists are trained in various modalities to address a wide range of concerns and issues.
