A therapy experience that embraces being human, rooted in kindness, compassion and just enough levity to keep things real.
Meet Your Therapist, Eva Light
I'm not a flawless professional with a handbook. I'm a human who understands, and my goal is to guide you to where you want to be.
My style as a therapist includes working with you to find the best way to navigate therapy, meeting you with radical acceptance and cutting through the bullshit, and getting down to the facts with you to find your story. I want to encourage you to be your most authentic self!
Your era as a confident powerhouse awaits.
How about we kick it off today?
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy where you re-feel through hard experiences, painful memories, and traumas of any kind (past or present). As you do this, you will listen to tones that go back and forth in each ear, tap on your shoulders back and forth, or watch an object move left and right so your eyes are moving back and forth.
With any of these types of bilateral stimulation to your senses (hearing, sight, or touch) while you re-feel through those hard memories - you will heal.
Correctly, and deeply.
For what can feel like the first time ever. This method gets to the root of what holds you back, and keeps you feeling heavy, stuck, and not your best self.
This method is safe, profoundly effective, and can be done in-person or virtually. Set up a consult and we can chat more about it!
