You already know the story. You can tell it cleanly. And it still lands in your body the same way every time — heat, shame, a hollow chest, the same old belief about yourself that logic can't argue you out of. That gap between what you understand and what you feel is exactly what EMDR is built to close. ## What the work actually looks like EMDR is eight phases, not a single technique. We spend real time on the first three — history, treatment planning, and resourcing — before we ever activate a memory. That means learning to notice your body, building internal safety cues, and testing the tools so your system trusts them before we ask it to do anything hard. When we move to processing, you hold a target — an image, the associated belief about yourself, the body sensation — while we do sets of bilateral stimulation. Over video that's usually a moving cue on your screen you track with your eyes, or tapping you do on your own knees or shoulders. Between sets we pause, I ask what you're noticing, and we follow where the material goes next. ## Who this is not for right now If you're in acute crisis — active suicidality, an active detox, unmanaged psychosis, ongoing violence in your home — EMDR is not the first move. Stabilization is. I will say that honestly and help you build the ground first, either with me or in a higher level of care. Honest geography I do not have an Oceanside office. Oceanside EMDR clients meet with me by secure video anywhere in California. For processing work, the safety of your own space is a feature, not a compromise. ## Common questions Can EMDR really work over video? Yes. Remote EMDR is now well-established — the same eight-phase protocol, with bilateral stimulation delivered through on-screen visual movement, tapping cues you follow, or self-administered butterfly taps. For many people the familiar chair at home is a better container for this work than an unfamiliar office. Do I have to describe the memory out loud? No. EMDR does not require you to narrate every detail. You need to be able to hold the memory in your mind and give me short check-ins about what you notice — an image, a body sensation, a belief, a feeling. Silence in the middle of a set is normal and expected. How many sessions? It depends on what we're processing and how well-resourced your system is going in. A single-incident target can move in a handful of sessions; complex, developmental trauma is longer. I will not promise a session count I can't keep. What I can promise is a phased plan you understand as we go. I am trained in EMDR and use it inside a larger integrative and relational approach. I am not an EMDRIA-certified therapist and I do not claim to be. Individual outcomes vary.
