Expert EMDR Therapy That Can Be Integrated With Your Ongoing Therapy

Adjunct EMDR Therapy is designed for clients who are already working with a primary therapist and want to use EMDR therapy with me as a focused addition to their current therapy.

This approach allows you to benefit from my specialized EMDR expertise without changing therapists.Your primary therapist continues to guide your overall treatment. My role is to provide specialized EMDR intervention.

I have 25 years of experience providing Adjunct EMDR Therapy. I’m EMDRIA Certified and highly experienced. I know how to provide precise, focused EMDR that complements your primary therapy. In Adjunct EMDR there is no expectation for you to end your primary therapy.

What Is Adjunct EMDR Therapy?

In Adjunct EMDR Therapy, EMDR Therapy sessions are used to address specific distressing memories, patterns, or nervous system responses that may be limiting progress in your current therapy. My approach is targeted and collaborative, with clear boundaries and agreement on the scope and goals of the EMDR sessions.

When Adjunct EMDR Is Helpful

Adjunct EMDR Therapy can be a great addition when:

You are making progress in therapy but feel stuck addressing specific traumas
Certain memories or negative experiences continue to trigger strong emotional or physical reactions
Anxiety, panic, or reactivity persists despite sufficient insight and knowledge of positive coping skills
You want to try EMDR without transitioning to a new therapist
Your therapist recommends EMDR to support your treatment goals

This approach respects the therapeutic relationship you already have while adding a highly effective tool.
