Online EMDR Therapy in Savannah, Georgia

You don’t have to keep carrying it.

Are you carrying something that won’t let go?

  • “I know it’s over, but my body still reacts like it’s happening.”

  • “Certain sounds, places, or smells send me right back.”

  • “I’ve talked about it in therapy before, and it still feels stuck.”

  • “I’m always on edge, waiting for something to go wrong.”

  • “I can’t stop replaying it.”

Painful experiences can stay “stuck” in the brain long after they end. EMDR therapy helps your brain finish processing those memories so they lose their emotional charge, often without needing to talk through every detail.

What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a well-researched therapy for trauma and distressing memories. During sessions, you briefly focus on a memory while doing bilateral stimulation, such as following a moving point with your eyes or tapping. Over time, the memory becomes less upsetting and easier to live with. EMDR works well online. We use on-screen eye movements or self-tapping, and I guide you through every step.

How EMDR can help

  • Trauma and PTSD, whether from one event or years of hard experiences

  • Birth trauma and difficult pregnancy or postpartum experiences

  • Anxiety and panic

  • Grief and loss

  • Military-related stress, for service members and their families

  • Painful memories that keep shaping how you feel about yourself

Frequently asked questions

Does EMDR really work online?
Yes. Research and clinical experience show online EMDR can be just as effective as in-person sessions.

Will I have to talk about my trauma in detail?
No. EMDR doesn’t require you to describe every detail out loud. You stay in control of what you share.

How long does EMDR take?
It depends on what you’re working on. Some people feel relief within a few sessions; more complex trauma takes longer. We’ll make a plan together.

Is EMDR only for major trauma?
No. It can also help with anxiety, grief, painful memories, and experiences that still affect how you see yourself.

Does insurance cover EMDR?
Usually, yes. EMDR is billed as regular therapy, and I’ll check your coverage before we begin.
