Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR)
The effects of trauma can have life long impact on our physical, emotional and mental health. At New Moon Counselling, we can help you find the support you need to heal from the trauma you’ve endured.
EMDR Therapy
EMDR Therapy
EMDR therapy is a structured modality that primarily focuses on treating individuals who experience distressing, traumatic events although it can also be used to treat other conditions. The idea behind EMDR is those traumatic memories, when unprocessed, can become “stuck” in the brain, leading to a wife range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
What can EMDR Therapy help with?
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Childhood trauma and neglect
Sexual assault or abuse
Accidents and injuries
Witnessing or experiencing violence
Natural disasters
Loss or grief
Types of EMDR Services
EMDR Therapy:
This session is for clients who have already completed preparation and are ready to begin EMDR reprocessing. You will work together with the therapist, to target stuck memories or patterns, using a trauma-informed, collaborative approach to help your brain and body process and heal. Do not book an EMDR session if you have not yet met with the therapist, please book an Individual Therapy Session to begin
Not sure if EMDR is right for you? Book a regular individual therapy session, and you can explore with the therapist, whether EMDR might be a good fit for you.
EMDR Intensive:
An EMDR Intensive is an extended session designed to help you move through trauma or stuck patterns more quickly and deeply than traditional weekly therapy. Rather than spreading EMDR over multiple short sessions, intensives allow for deeper focus and momentum in a safe, supportive space.
Who is it for?
EMDR intensives are ideal for:
• Clients already working with me who feel ready to go deeper
• People who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or looping on a specific issue
• Those with busy schedules who prefer focused, accelerated healing
What to expect:
We’ll start by briefly checking in, reviewing your goals, and preparing your nervous system. The bulk of the session will be focused EMDR reprocessing, with time at the end to ground, reflect, and integrate. I’ll provide a personalized aftercare plan so you leave feeling supported and steady.
If you’re unsure whether an intensive is right for you, feel free to book a standard individual session and you can discuss it with the therapist.
